Abstract
An image capturing apparatus comprises: an image sensor that photoelectrically converts light incident via an imaging optical system and outputs an image; a shake detection unit that detects shake of the image capturing apparatus; and an actuation unit that performs translational actuation and rotational actuation on the image sensor in a plane perpendicular to an optical axis of the imaging optical system so as to correct the shake detected by the shake detection unit. In a case where each of a plurality of images output from the image sensor is aligned by translational actuation by an integer multiple of pixel and the plurality of aligned images are synthesized, the actuation unit performs the rotational actuation in preference to the translational actuation.
