Abstract
An imaging unit includes a mount unit, an imaging element unit, a plurality of elastic members, a plurality of adjusting screws, and at least one restricting member. The mount unit is configured to support the interchangeable lens unit. The imaging element unit is disposed apart from the mount unit and is configured to produce image data for the subject by opto-electrical conversion. The plurality of elastic members is disposed in a compressed state between the mount unit and the imaging element unit. The plurality of adjusting screws is mounted to the mount unit and/or the imaging element unit to adjust the distance between the mount unit and the imaging element unit. The restricting member is mounted to the mount unit and/or the imaging element unit and configured to restrict the imaging element unit from moving close to the mount unit against the elastic force of the elastic members.
