An imaging device is provided, including a photographing optical system including an image sensor positioned at an imaging position of the photographing optical system, and an image stabilizer which detects vibration applied to the photographing optical system and moves the image sensor in a plane orthogonal to an optical axis of the photographing optical system to counteract image shake in accordance with a direction and a magnitude of the vibration. The image sensor and a rearmost lens group of the photographing optical system, which is positioned in front of the image sensor, are provided as a movable unit so that the image sensor and the rearmost lens group are integrally moved by the image stabilizer.
