Abstract
A vibration reduction apparatus includes a vibration detector for detecting movement; and an image blur reduction mechanism including a vibration reduction optical system for preventing an image from blurring, and a drive mechanism for driving the vibration reduction optical system. The drive mechanism is controlled to drive the vibration reduction optical system in response to a detection signal from the vibration detector. The vibration detector is integrally mounted as a part of a mechanism unit including the vibration reduction mechanism.
