Abstract

A lens barrel includes: a vibration reduction mechanism comprising a vibration reduction lens and a drive device that drives the vibration reduction lens, so as to compensate for image vibration; and a shutter unit for exposure control. The drive device and the shutter unit are arranged so as at least partially to overlap in a direction orthogonal to an optical axis of the lens barrel.
