Abstract
A driving apparatus includes a holding member configured to hold an object to be driven, a support member configured to support the holding member via an elastic member, a plurality of actuators configured to drive the holding member holding the object, and a constrainer configured to constrain, in a non-contact manner, a position of the holding member with respect to the support member in anon-driving direction different from a drivable direction which is a direction in which the holding member can be driven by the plurality of actuators.
