Patent ID: 8290355

Claim:
A lens apparatus, supported by a support member, comprising: a correction lens; a vibration detection portion that detects vibration of the lens apparatus; a controller that calculates a driving signal, wherein the controller is programmed to: calculate a vibration signal based on an output from the vibration detection portion; calculate a pan/tilt operation signal based on pan/tilt operation information input from the support member; subtract the pan/tilt operation signal from the vibration signal and outputs the result as the driving signal; and calculate a panning speed and a tilting speed based on the pan/tilt operation information input from the support member, a correction lens driving portion that drives the correction lens based on the driving signal from the controller, wherein when the panning speed calculated by the controller is equal to or higher than a panning speed threshold value or when the tilting speed calculated by the controller is equal to or higher than a tilting speed threshold value, the correction lens driving portion does not drive the correction lens.
