An imaging apparatus having an imaging element for accumulating signal charge corresponding to an incident scene light flux in a photo-electric converting element section and transferring the accumulated signal charge through a vertical shifter to a horizontal shifter so as to be read out there from, and a shutter for selectively blocking the scene light flux to be incident on the imaging element is moved. The operating condition of the imaging apparatus is judged and the operation timings of the shutter and/or the imaging element are/is controlled on the basis of the judged operating condition. The operating condition judging function judges as the operating condition of the imaging apparatus at least one of the ambient temperature, the posture of the imaging apparatus, the power supply voltage level and the number of times of operation of the shutter. |
