ABSTRACT:
A vibration compensation camera to correct image vibration occurring due to camera vibration by driving a vibration compensation lens according to vibration detected by a vibration detection circuit. The vibration compensation camera also includes a delay mode setting device to set a time delay to perform a shutter opening operation after a predetermined time has elapsed after a release operation. When the delay mode setting device is set to the delay mode, the vibration compensation system is not operated, thereby reducing electric power consumption. The vibration compensation camera may also have a bulb mode function to perform photography while in a bulb mode. A bulb mode setting device sets a bulb mode to maintain a camera shutter in an open state. When the bulb mode setting device is set to the bulb mode, the vibration compensation system is not operated. The vibration compensation camera may also have a timed delay function to start the vibration detection circuit after a first delay time has elapsed from a release operation and to perform a shutter opening operation after a second delay time has elapsed from the release operation.
