Abstract

A lens device is provided that outputs an action state of a lens while utilizing a multi-purpose communication interface capable of connecting a large number of camera devices. The lens device includes: a lens mechanism that is built into a lens main body and forms the optical image; a drive control unit that is built into the lens main body and drive-controls the lens mechanism; a control unit that includes a microcomputer and outputs a drive control signal to the drive control unit; a first connection unit that forms a first communication interface capable of having input/output communication with the control unit, and is capable of connecting to a network; and a second connection unit that includes a second communication interface capable of outputting a signal from the control unit.
