Abstract:
1. A blur correction camera system, comprising: a vibration detection unit that detects a vibration; a blur correction optical system that is driven based upon a detection result of the vibration detection unit to execute a first image blur correction; an image capturing unit that captures an image formed with a photographic optical system that includes the blur correction optical system; and an image correction unit that executes a second image blur correction through image processing on an image captured by the image capturing unit, based on the detection result of the vibration detection unit, wherein: at least one of a time period information relating to a period of time during which a still image is captured by the image capturing unit and a timing information relating to a timing at which the still image is captured by the image capturing unit is inputted to the image correction unit; and the image correction unit executes the second image blur correction by using at least one of the time period information and the timing information thus inputted.
