Abstract
A camera body according to the present disclosure is one on which a lens unit is detachably mounted. The lens unit includes an optical system to form an optical image of a subject onto an imaging surface. The camera body includes: an imaging part having the imaging surface to form an image by converting light incident from the optical system into an electric signal; a first blur-detecting part capable of detecting motion of the camera body at least in a pitching, yawing, and rolling directions; a first blur-correction part capable of correcting a blur caused by the motion in the pitching, yawing, and rolling directions, based on a result of the detection by the first blur-detecting part; and a first controller, capable of communicating with the lens unit, controlling both the first blur-detecting part and the first blur-correction part. The first controller acquires information indicating whether or not the lens unit includes a second blur-correction part to correct a blur caused by the motion in the pitching and yawing directions. The first blur-correction part corrects only a blur caused by the motion in the rolling direction when the lens unit causes the second blur-correction part to operate.
