Abstract

An imaging device includes: an imaging element configured to capture an image using a luminous flux passing through an imaging optical system; a blur corrector configured to move a part of the imaging optical system or the imaging element; a movement detection unit configured to detect the motion of a main subject; and an imaging control unit configured to perform control so that multiple imaging is performed on the main subject under different imaging conditions to obtain a plurality of images to be combined. The imaging control unit causes the blur corrector to be driven so that the motion of the main subject detected by the movement detection unit is reduced in the multiple imaging.
