Canon DUAL IS Mirrorless Camera Patent Details
Patent Text Translated from Japanese (Machine Translation)
Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. (“JP”) 2009-265182 discloses an imaging system that changes a ratio (correction ratio) between a correction amount by moving an image sensor on a camera side and a correction amount by moving the correction lens on an interchangeable lens side in accordance with an image stabilization amount. More specifically, the image is stabilized prior to imaging (exposure) by moving only the correction lens, and the image is stabilized during the imaging by moving both the correction lens and the image sensor. Then, the camera starts controlling the movement of the image sensor for the image stabilization after moving the image sensor in accordance with the position of the correction lens when the imaging starts.
IIS (In Camera Image Stabilization)
Thereby, the image is stabilized by moving the image sensor 104 (referred to as IIS hereinafter). The IIS is performed for the camera shake in the vertical direction (pitch direction) and the camera shake in the horizontal direction (yaw direction).
