Image capturing apparatus capable of image stabilization during a panning operation and method of controlling the same

A method of controlling an image stabilization apparatus, comprising:

• detecting a shake;
• correcting the shake of an image to be captured;
• detecting based on a detection result of the detecting whether a panning operation is being executed;
• setting a target speed of the panning operation;
• calculating a correction amount in the correcting based on the target speed set in the setting and a speed of the shake detected in the detecting;
• controlling a movement in correcting based on the correction amount calculated in the calculating when it is detected in the detecting that the panning operation is being executed;
• and
• storing a plurality of initial speeds in advance,
• wherein the setting sets the target speed of the panning operation to be equal to an arbitrary initial speed of the plurality of initial speeds stored in the storing immediately after the detecting detects that the panning operation is being executed.

A non-transitory computer readable storage medium storing a program that causes a computer to execute a method of controlling an image stabilization apparatus, said method comprising:

• detecting a shake;
• correcting the shake of an image to be captured;
• detecting based on a detection result of the detecting whether a panning operation is being executed;
• setting a target speed of the panning operation;
• calculating a correction amount in the correcting based on the target speed set in the setting and a speed of the shake detected in the detection step detecting;
• controlling a movement in the correcting based on the correction amount calculated in the calculating when it is detected in the detecting that the panning operation is being executed;
• and
• storing a plurality of initial speeds in advance,
• wherein the setting sets the target speed of the panning operation to be equal to an arbitrary initial speed of the plurality of initial speeds stored in the storing immediately after the detecting detects that the panning operation is being executed.
