1. An image sensing apparatus comprising:

  • a vibration detector that detects vibration of the apparatus;

    a vibration correction unit that corrects vibration of an image caused by vibration of said apparatus; and

    a control unit that calculates a vibration correction signal based on a vibration detection signal from said vibration detector and controls said vibration correction unit, wherein said control unit comprises;

    a first detection unit that detects whether a first frequency obtained from said vibration detection signal and used for calculating the vibration correction signal falls within a first frequency band which is equals to or lower than a predetermined frequency;

    a second detection unit that detects whether a second frequency obtained from said vibration detection signal and used for calculating the vibration correction signal falls within a second frequency band exceeding said predetermined frequency or not;

    a variable high frequency band pass unit that changes the pass band for the vibration detection signal on the high frequency side depending on cases

         1) where the first frequency falls within the first frequency band and the second frequency does not fall within the second frequency band,

         2) where the first frequency does not fall within the first frequency band and the second frequency falls within the second frequency band, and

         3) where the first frequency falls within the first frequency band and the second frequency falls within the second frequency band simultaneously; and

    a calculation unit that calculates the vibration correction signal from a vibration frequency of the vibration detection signal passed through said variable high frequency band pass unit and outputs the vibration correction signal to said vibration correction unit.
