A collapsible-type lens barrel includes an image blurring correction unit that drives a first lens in a plane orthogonal to an optical axis so as to cancel shaking of an image sensing apparatus, and a second lens placed adjacent the image blurring correction unit. When the collapsible-type lens barrel is in the collapsed state, the image blurring correction unit causes the first lens to withdraw to a position away from the optical axis of the second lens, and causes the second lens to retract in such a manner that a portion of the second lens enters at least part of a space on the optical axis produced by the withdrawal of the first lens.
