Patent ID: 7355631

Claim:
A camera shake correction device comprising: sensor for detecting movement of a camera body; high-pass filter, having a circuit including a capacitor and a resistor connected in series, in which a reference voltage is inputted in a common ground terminal of said circuit and an output signal of said sensor is inputted in said capacitor; amplifier for amplifying an output signal from a connection point between said capacitor and said resistor of said high-pass filter; A/D converter for converting a signal amplified by said amplifier to a digital value; detection means for detecting camera shake, panning or tilting based on a signal of said digital value converted by said A/D converter; and switching means for discharging said capacitor of said high-pass filter at said reference voltage, if panning and/or tilting is detected by said detection means, wherein, when panning and/or tilting is detected, camera shake detection is not performed and the switching means is put in a position to discharge the capacitor at the reference voltage, wherein, when panning and/or tilting is not detected, the switching means is put in a position to enable camera shake detection.
