A shake correction device that corrects a shake of a captured image captured by an imaging element which images subjects through an imaging optical system, and includes: a movement detection sensor as defined herein; a drive mechanism as defined herein; an optical element as defined herein; a subject light detection unit as defined herein; a movement detection unit as defined herein; and a drive controller as defined herein, and the movement detection unit calculates distances of the subjects formed on the light receiving surface of the subject light detection unit from the imaging optical system based on output signals of the subject light detection unit, and detects the movement amount as the second movement in a case where a movement amount of the subject of which the distance is maximum exceeds a threshold value.
