Abstract
An image stabilizing mechanism that can sufficiently cool heat from an image sensor and have a heat dissipation member that does not hinder drive control of a movable part. The image stabilizing mechanism includes a holding part, a movable part that contacts a heat source and is held by the holding part so as to be movable in first and second directions, a drive unit that generates a driving force for driving the movable part, and a heat dissipation member that includes a heat transfer member and an elastic member. The heat dissipation member includes a sliding surface that slidingly contacts the movable part to be thermally connected and a holding surface that holds the movable part to be thermally connected. Frictional force generated on the sliding surface is not more than a half of maximum driving force of the movable part generated by the drive unit.
