An image-capturing apparatus includes an image-capturing device having an image-capturing surface, a shutter unit having an aperture configured to allow light from an object to pass through the aperture, and a controller that controls the shutter unit. The shutter unit includes a curtain unit that selectively executes an opening operation of opening the aperture and a closing operation of closing the aperture, and an actuator that drives the curtain unit. The controller is operable to control the shutter unit to execute: an image-capturing operation in which the shutter unit executes the closing operation after resetting an electric charge stored in the image-capturing device; and a pre-driving operation in which the actuator drives the curtain with a small motion before executing the image-capturing operation.
