Claim Text:
1. An imaging device comprising: a first optical system formed by combining an optical system from an imaging lens to an image pickup element where a subject image is formed and an optical system from a display device where an electronic image of a subject representing an image formed at the image pickup element is displayed to an ocular unit of a finder, wherein the finder is a hybrid finder allowing optical image display, electronic image display, and superimposing display of optical and electronic images; a second optical system which guides an optical image of the subject to the ocular unit, wherein the optical image is guided to the ocular unit without passing through the optical system from the imaging lens, through the image pickup element, to the display device; and a correcting device which performs, based on distortion aberration information about the first optical system and distortion aberration about the second optical system, distortion aberration correction to the electronic image of the subject so that distortion aberration equal to distortion aberration of the optical image of the subject occurs in the electronic image of the subject and causes the electronic image to be displayed on the display device.
