Patent ID: 6987529

Claim:
An adjustment system for a camera having a shake correction function, the adjustment system comprising: a reference light source unit which collimates light emitted from a slit and generates a reference light; the camera including: a photographing lens; an image sensing device for converting a subject image formed by an optical element to image data; a shake detecting section including a first shake angle detection section for detecting a shake angle in a first axial direction arid a second shake angle detecting section for detecting a shake angle in a second axial direction perpendicular to the first axial direction; a wedge prism formed of optical material in which an index of refraction changes corresponding to a voltage applied thereto and disposed on the photographing lens, the wedge prism changing an angle of a light beam passing therethrough in accordance with the voltage applied thereto; an application voltage generating section for generating the voltage applied to the wedge prism; a storage section for storing the relation between the voltage applied to the wedge prism and an angle of deviation of the light beam passing through the wedge prism; a control section for determining a voltage to be applied to the wedge prism based on an output of the shake detecting section and an output of the storage section and controlling the voltage generating section to generate the thus determined application voltage; and a setting section for setting an image sensing mode for image-sensing the subject image and a test mode for measuring the relation between the voltage applied to the wedge prism and the angle of deviation of the light beam passing through the wedge prism; and an external control device which obtains the image data from the image sensing device, determines a position of the reference light, forms an image on the image sensing device, prepares a data table indicating the relation between the voltage applied to the wedge prism and the angle of deviation of the light beam passing through the wedge prism, and stores the data table in the storing section.
