Abstract
An imaging apparatus including an imaging element that images an object through an imaging optical system is provided that includes a driving unit configured to drive the imaging element in a direction orthogonal to the optical axis of the imaging optical system; a correction unit configured to correct image blur of an image captured by the imaging element by calculating a moving amount of the imaging element based on a shake detection signal from a shake detection unit and controlling the drive unit; and a control unit configured to perform control to change an opening amount of a field frame of a viewfinder used in observation the object. The control unit performs to reduce the field frame in a case where the image shake correction is performed so as to be smaller than the field frame in a case where the image shake correction is not performed.
