Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes: a distance detection unit that detects an object distance; a shake detection unit that detects an amount of shake of the imaging apparatus; a driving unit that moves an optical element or an imaging element included in an imaging optical system to correct an image blur caused by a shake of the imaging apparatus; and a control unit that calculates an amount of movement of the optical element or the imaging element moved by the driving unit based on the amount of shake detected by the shake detection unit and controls the driving unit, and the control unit directs the imaging element to continuously capture images in response to an imaging instruction and changes a correction gain which is used to calculate the amount of movement for each imaging operation, depending on the object distance detected by the distance detection unit.
