Constant speed drive of a reticle and a wafer in a relative scanning direction and positioning of the reticle and the wafer are simultaneously performed with high precision by a slit scanning exposure scheme. A reticle side scanning stage for scanning a reticle relative to a slit-like illumination area in the relative scanning direction is placed on a reticle side base. A reticle side fine adjustment stage for moving and rotating the reticle within a two-dimensional plane is placed on the reticle side scanning stage. The reticle is placed on the reticle side fine adjustment stage. Constant speed drive and positioning of the reticle and a wafer are performed by independently controlling the reticle side scanning stage and the reticle side fine adjustment stage.
