Abstract
An image stabilization control apparatus performs image stabilization by controlling first correction unit that drives a correction lens in an imaging optical system and second correction unit that drives an image sensor by selecting one of control methods including first and second control methods in accordance with whether the imaging optical system is compatible with the first control method, and obtaining correction amounts of the first and second correction unit based on a shake amount and on the selected control method. The first control method is to perform an over-correction using the first correction unit and an inverse-correction using the second correction unit. The second control method is a method to correct the shake amount using a preset ratio for the first and second correction unit.
