Abstract: An endoscope device includes an endoscope including, in a tip end thereof, an imaging device, a first optical system, and an optical element. The optical element is disposed at any one of a first position on an optical path of the first optical system and a second position away from the optical path of the first optical system and is configured to switch between states of light incident on the imaging device. In addition, the endoscope device includes a detector and a processor. The detector is configured to detect movement of the optical element. The processor is configured to determine whether or not the optical element moves from the first position or the second position on the basis of the movement. The processor is configured to control a position of the optical element on the basis of a result of determination executed by the processor.
