An imaging apparatus includes a shake correction unit, a pixel shift unit, and a controller. The shake correction unit includes a first movable unit and a first position detector, and moves the first movable unit based on outputs of a shake detector and the first position detector. The pixel shift unit includes a second movable unit and a second position detector, and makes a pixel shift correction by moving the second movable unit based on an output of the second position detector. The controller controls the shake correction unit to stop a center of the lens and held by the first movable unit at a position that matches the optical axis. The controller sets a gain for amplifying the output of the first position detector when performing shake correction to be higher than a gain for amplifying the output of the first position detector when making a pixel shift correction.
