Abstract

Provided is an imaging apparatus that includes a movement restriction member that mechanically sandwiches a movable member. The imaging apparatus includes the movable member that includes an imaging element, a support member that supports the movable member within a plane that intersects an optical axis of the imaging element, and a movement restriction member that includes a first member and a second member. The first member and the second member move between sandwiching positions at which the first member and the second member sandwich a sandwiching target member provided on the movable member and non-sandwiching positions separated from the sandwiching target member, and at the sandwiching positions, the first member and the second member sandwich the sandwiching target member at at least two or more points.
