Camera system having an image blur prevention feature

摘要

A camera system having an image blur correcting function includes: a lens unit with a correcting optical system for correcting blur of images, a position sensor for detecting a moving position of the correcting optical system, a restricting unit for generating a driving force of restricting a displacement of the correcting optical system on the basis of an output of the position sensor, a fixing unit for temporarily fixing the correcting optical system, and a lens side communication circuit for exchanging data with a camera body; and a camera body including a camera side communication circuit for exchanging data with the lens side communication circuit, and an operation control circuit for outputting to the camera side communication circuit an operation control signal which controls the operation of the restriction unit and that of the fixing unit in accordance with the operation mode of the camera.
