Abstract:
In a case where a first coil enters an energized state, the first coil, a second coil, a detection magnet, and a Z-axis position sensor move in an X axis direction. In a case where the second coil enters an energized state, the second coil and the detection magnet move in a Z axis direction, but the first coil and the Z-axis position sensor do not move in the Z axis direction. The Z-axis position sensor is disposed so as to be spaced from the second coil, and the detection magnet is disposed on a side opposite to a second driving magnet with respect to the Z-axis position sensor. The Z-axis position sensor detects a displacement amount V of the detection magnet in the Z axis direction.

The image blur correction device includes an acceleration sensor, an angular velocity sensor, and a system control unit. The system control unit selects one of rotation axes based on a usage state of a digital camera, and calculates a shift blur amount generated in a direction by rotation of the digital camera around a second axis and a shift blur amount generated in a direction by rotation of the digital camera around a first axis based on distances from the selected rotation axis to the acceleration sensor, angular velocities, and accelerations.

Abstract:
Barrels are attached so as to be rotated around first rotational axes. Reflective members are fixed to the barrels, and reflective members are attached so as to be rotated around second rotational axes. Rotation amounts are equal to each other in rotation of the pair of left and right barrels around the first rotational axes and rotation of the reflective members of the barrels around the second rotational axes due to a link mechanism having a first link member and a second link member. Image blurring in a yaw direction is corrected due to movement of the first link member in an X axis direction. Image blurring in a pitch direction is corrected due to movement of the second link member in a Y axis direction.
