Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes: an imaging unit configured to capture an image of a subject; a main body having a grip region provided on a first surface on which the imaging unit is disposed so that a user is able to grip the grip region; and a stand portion provided at a first end portion of the main body and disposed with the grip region separated from the imaging unit. The grip region faces a long side of an imaging surface of the imaging unit. The stand portion is located on a first axis orthogonal to an optical axis of the imaging unit and is rotatable within a plane along the optical axis and the first axis.
