<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a charged particle beam apparatus and a focused ion beam apparatus, capable of lowering a charged particle accelerating voltage, while suppressing a decrease in precision and efficiency of processing due to charged particle beams. Ž<P>SOLUTION: When a voltage applied between an LMIS 1 and an extraction electrode 13 is set to 5 to 8 (kV) and an applied voltage to a condenser lens 2 is set to 0 (kV), a distance between the upstream-side surface of the extraction electrode 13 and the beam limiting aperture 14 is determined so that a condition of an applied voltage Va to an acceleration electrode 15 and an applied voltage Vobj to an objective lens 8 in focusing charged particles on a sample 10 through an objective lens 8 is Vobj≈A×Va when Va≥2 (kV) and is Vobj>A×Va+10 (V) when Va=1 (kV).
