Abstract
Provided is an imaging device, a solid-state image sensor, a camera module, a drive control unit, and an imaging method by which an effect of motion on an image can be corrected. The drive control unit controls drive of at least one of an optical system or an imaging unit by finding, on the basis of motion of the imaging unit that is physically detected, an amount of movement at the time at least one of the optical system or the imaging unit is moved relative to another to optically correct blurring appearing in the image captured by the imaging unit. A signal processing unit performs signal processing for correcting an effect of the motion of the imaging unit on the image based on position information and motion information synchronized with each coordinate on the image.
