Image blurring correction unit, image blurring correction apparatus, and imaging apparatus

Abstract

An image blurring correction unit comprises: a holding module that holds a lens; a support member having a support portion that holds the holding module at an axial point so as to be swingable in an optional direction, the axial point being one point along an outer periphery of the holding module; and two drive mechanisms that drive the holding module through first and second drive points, which are apart from the axial point in first and second directions differing from each other, respectively, the two drive mechanisms comprising: a first drive mechanism that turns the holding module, through the first drive point, around a first axis connecting the axial point to the second drive point; and a second drive mechanism that turns the holding module, through the second drive point, around a second axis connecting the axial point to the first drive point, wherein the support member further comprises a first wing portion and a second wing portion that are interposed by the support portion and extend in the first direction and the second direction, respectively, and that hold the first drive mechanism and the second drive mechanism, respectively.
