Abstract
The present invention provides an image deflection correction apparatus which can switch a mode of image deflection correction (stop the image deflection correction) if it is judged that a camera (optical system) is in a pan/tilt operation, in which the determination condition for pan judgment as to whether or not the panning operation is active or the determination condition for tilt judgment as to whether or not the tilting operation is active, which is not satisfied ahead, is loosened, so that the operation is appropriately reflected to the starting motion of image on a photographing screen when the pan/tilt operation is performed in an oblique direction.
