The shape detecting portion detects a shape of a sheet at a detection position located between a first conveyance member and an image forming position in a sheet conveyance path. The switch control portion, when the first conveyance member is determined to be in an accelerated state where it is accelerated from a stopped state to a driven state, switches an detection interval at which the shape of the sheet is detected by the shape detecting portion, to a first interval that corresponds to a rotation speed of the first conveyance member, and when the first conveyance member is determined to be in a decelerated state where it is decelerated from the driven state to the stopped state, switches the detection interval to a predetermined second interval.
