Abstract
An autosampler includes an imaging portion configured to move in a horizontal plane direction and a vertical direction while maintaining a positional relationship with a needle. The imaging portion is configured to image a tip of the needle and top surfaces of from a position obliquely above the tip of the needle so that the tip of the needle, a top surface of a vial directly below the tip of the needle, and a top surface of a nearby vial are within a visual field. A distance between the tip of the needle and a target position is measured utilizing a visual field image of the imaging portion, and the tip of the needle is made to reach a target position based on the measured distance.
