<p>Provided is an imaging device capable of achieving some degree of power saving while achieving some degree of camera-shake compensation at any zoom factor. The variable zoom imaging device is equipped with an optical system that is used to form an object image, a pickup element that is used to capture the object image formed by the optical system, a compensation unit that is used to reduce vibrations in the object image on the pickup element, and a control unit that selects one of multiple control modes according to a given zoom factor and controls the compensation unit based on the selected control mode. The control unit has at least a control mode that controls the compensation unit so as to reduce vibrations in the object image when capturing a still image but not to reduce vibrations in the object image during a non-imagining period, that is, when a still image is not captured.</p> |
