Patent ID: 8514288

Claim:
A shake compensation apparatus that captures a still image in a moving image capturing mode when an instruction unit instructs still image capturing, the apparatus comprising: a vibration detection unit configured to detect vibration applied to the apparatus; a shake compensation unit configured to compensate an image blur causing the shake, moving a correction member within a driving range based on an output from the vibration detection unit, wherein a driving range during still image capturing is different from a driving range during movie image capturing, and wherein a center position of the driving range during movie image capturing does not match a center position of the driving range during still image capturing; a position detection unit configured to detect a position of the correction member; and a control unit configured to drive the correction member in a driving range according to whether still image capturing or moving image capturing is performed, wherein the control unit makes the position of the correction member detected by the position detection unit the center position of the driving range during still image capturing when the instruction unit instructs still image capturing in the moving image capturing mode.
