Abstract:
An image stabilization apparatus includes: a first calculation unit configured to calculate an angular velocity of movement of an image capturing apparatus; a second calculation unit configured to calculate a moving amount of an object from a plurality of images; a third calculation unit configured to calculate an angular velocity of movement of the object; a determination unit configured to determine whether or not the object is walking; and a selection unit configured to select, based on a determination result of the determination unit, whether to perform control such that an image stabilization unit corrects image blur based on the angular velocities calculated by the first calculation unit and the third calculation unit, or such that the image stabilization unit corrects image blur based on the angular velocity calculated by the first calculation unit.
