ABSTRACT:
An optical apparatus includes: an optical imaging system having an image stabilizing lens, the image stabilizing lens being shifted in directions orthogonal to an optical axis for camera shake correction; image correcting means for making an image correction for image information captured through the optical imaging system; an imager device configured to convert the image information obtained through the optical imaging system into an electric signal; camera shake detecting means for detecting camera shake occurring at the optical imaging system; and lens drive means for shifting the image stabilizing lens in the directions orthogonal to the optical axis based on a detection result obtained by the camera shake detecting means. A center of correction to be used in the image correcting means is shifted with respect to a read image center on the imager device depending on a distance and a direction of the shifting of the image stabilizing lens.
