ABSTRACT:
An optical apparatus includes an optical unit having an optical axis, a manual operation member arranged to be manually operated to drive the optical unit, a driving motor for electrically driving the optical unit, and a driven member arranged to be driven by the driving motor, wherein the manual operation member and the driven member are kept in contact with each other through a predetermined frictional force on a ring-shaped face whose center lies at the optical axis, and wherein a driving force of the driving motor is transmitted via the driven member to the manual operation member, while a manual driving force onto the manual operation member is not transmitted to the driven member.
