A camera which compensates for motion and automatically terminates motion compensation after an exposure. An optical system of the camera has a lens which is shiftable in directions perpendicular to the optical axis of the optical system. A motion compensation mechanism compensates for motion of the optical system during an exposure by shifting the lens. The motion compensation mechanism automatically terminates motion compensation after exposure is completed. A switch can select a first mode or a second mode. When the switch selects the first mode, the motion compensation mechanism automatically terminates motion compensation after exposure is completed. When the switch selects the second mode, the motion compensation mechanism continues motion compensation after exposure is completed, thereby allowing continuous shooting with continued motion compensation. An operational member is operable to cause the motion compensation mechanism to start compensating for motion. The motion compensation mechanism compensates for motion for a time period equal to a specific amount of time from the operation of the operational member. Moreover, when the operational member is operated during the time period while the motion compensation mechanism is compensating for motion, the motion compensation mechanism restarts the time period for which motion is compensated. The restarted time period runs for the specific amount of time from the time the operational member was operated while the motion compensation mechanism was compensating for motion.
