Abstract:
An electronic camera includes: an electrical charge storage-type image-capturing element that stores an electrical charge by receiving subject light; a shielding member that allows the subject light to pass to the image-capturing element or blocks the subject light to the image-capturing element; an electromagnetic actuator used to drive the shielding member at least in a closing direction; a storage control device that starts an electrical charge storage at the image-capturing element after a time point at which the shielding member is detected to be in an open state allowing the subject light to pass and ends the electrical charge storage once a preset length of exposure time elapses; and a shield control device that outputs an instruction for driving the shielding member in the closing direction to the electromagnetic actuator before the electrical charge storage ends.
