Abstract:
An optical apparatus comprising:an optical device for shifting an incident position of light incident upon an image sensing surface; a plurality of regulating members, abutting against a plurality of ends of said optical device, for regulating a position of each of the ends in respective optical axis directions, thereby controlling an inclination position of said optical device; and driving means for driving said optical device in order to have said optical device abut against said plurality of regulating members; wherein said plurality of regulating members comprise a plurality of regulating surfaces which abut against respective ends to regulate a position of the ends, an inclination position of said optical device is determined by changing a combination of an end of said optical device and a regulating surface being abutted thereto, thereby controlling said optical device in a plurality of inclination angles, and a number of regulating surfaces provided in one end of the plurality of ends of said optical device is different from that provided in the other end of said optical device.
