Imaging device having reduced electromagnetic wave interference

An imaging device for shooting images or video of a photographic subject, the imaging device having a front side where a mount is located and a rear side where an imaging surface is located, the imaging device comprising:

• an imaging element for taking an optical image of the photographic subject and generating image data therefrom;
• a main circuit board for conducting signal processing on the image data generated by the imaging element, and including a main circuit board GND having a ground potential;
• an imaging element flexible cable connected to the main circuit board and on which the imaging element is mounted;
• a mount, composed of a metallic component, arranged in the front side of the imaging device and therein fixing the imaging element, such that the imaging element flexible cable, and the imaging element as mounted on the flexible cable, are disposed to the rear of the mount;
• a metal plate connected to the mount and disposed between the imaging element and the main circuit board, wherein:
• the main circuit board includes, on one portion of the main circuit board GND, a GND exposed part;
• and
• the imaging device further comprises a frame covering the imaging device and including a metallic component, and
• a GND connection part connecting the frame and the GND exposed part.
