Abstract

An image pickup system includes a camera body and a lens unit that is attachable to the camera body. The lens unit detects shaking by a shake detection unit. Drive control of an image shake correction unit is performed in accordance with an image shake correction amount calculated based on the shaking. The camera body sets timing of obtaining the shaking detected by the shake detection unit, based on information transmitted to the lens unit. In a first communication, a camera communication control unit transmits information on a base point to a lens communication control unit, and in a second communication, the camera communication control unit transmits information on a relative time from the base point that was transmitted in the first communication to a lens communication control unit.
