An interchangeable lens that is removably attachable to a camera body, includes: a first clock receiving unit that receives a first clock from the camera body; a second clock transmitting unit that transmits a second clock to the camera body; a lens that drives by receiving a driving force from a first driving member; a diaphragm member that drives by receiving a driving force from a second driving member; a receiving unit that receives an instruction from the camera body synchronized with the first clock; a first transmitting unit that periodically transmits positional information on the lens in synchronization with the second clock, to the camera body; and a second transmitting unit that transmits a state of the diaphragm member based on the instruction in synchronization with the first clock, to the camera body.
