Patent attributes
Provided is an unintentional hand movement canceling device, comprising: swing detecting means detecting a swing of an image; and a correction quantity generating means generating a correction quantity to calculate a correction position based on a swing quantity detected by the swing detection means, a damping coefficient of a swing quantity for controlling a characteristic of a non-corrected residue percent at a swing frequency and a damping center for controlling a centering velocity at which a correction position is caused to move to an initial position before correction, the correction quantity having a variable characteristic of a non-corrected residue percent at a frequency of the swing and a variable centering velocity at which a correction position is caused to move to an initial position before correction, wherein the correction quantity generating means includes means updating the damping center based on a preset damping coefficient of the damping center.
