Abstract

An image pickup system includes a camera body and a lens device that is attached to the camera body. In the lens device, a shake detecting unit detects a shake, and a splitting unit splits a degree of image blurring correction which is calculated on the basis of the shake into a degree of optical image blurring correction and a degree of electronic image blurring correction. In the first image blurring correction, driving of an image blurring correcting unit is controlled using the degree of optical image blurring correction. In the second image blurring correction, an electronic image blurring correction control unit of the camera body performs image blurring correction through image processing using the degree of electronic image blurring correction. The camera body transmits timing information on an exposure period and information on a correction range of the electronic image blurring correction to the lens device. The lens device transmits the degree of electronic image blurring correction calculated by the splitting unit to the camera body.
