The size of the opening 1094a of the shutter base plate 1094 is set, considering driving amounts of the image sensor 101 and the low pass filter 108 during shake correction, so that the size of the opening 1094a in X-axis direction (Y-axis direction) is set equal to or larger than the sum of the size of the low pass filter 108 and the maximum moving amount of the low pass filter 108 in the X-axis direction (Y-axis direction). Specifically, the length Lx of the opening 1094a of the shutter base plate 1094 in the X-axis direction, and the length Ly thereof in the Y-axis direction respectively satisfy the following equations: Lx.gtoreq.X+2.DELTA.x Ly.gtoreq.Y+2.DELTA.y where X represents the length of the low pass filter 108 in the X-axis direction, Y represents the length of the low pass filter 108 in the Y-axis direction, .DELTA.x represents the maximum moving amount of the low pass filter 108 in the X-axis direction with respect to the centering position, and .DELTA.y represents the maximum moving amount of the low pass filter 108 in the Y-axis direction with respect to the centering position.
