Abstract
A control apparatus is configured to control a rotationally driving apparatus that includes a rotationally driving unit configured to rotate a movable unit including an optical system relative to a support unit. The control apparatus includes a memory storing instructions, and a processor configured to execute the instructions to acquire an optical state of the optical system, determine a driving range based on a margin angle and a rotation angle which is an angle from an initial position to a position where the movable unit interferes with the support unit, and control the rotationally driving unit using the driving range. The margin angle is changed according to the optical state.
