IMAGING APPARATUS AND SHUTTER DRIVING METHOD
First Claim
1. An imaging apparatus comprising:
- a motor mechanism configured to generate a traveling torque of an opening and closing blade of a mechanical shutter provided in an incident light path to an imaging element by electric conduction to a coil;
a spring mechanism configured to generate the traveling torque of the opening and closing blade together with the motor mechanism; and
a control unit configured to be able to individually control a time length from start of the electric conduction to the coil to start of traveling of the opening and closing blade, and a current value to be supplied to the coil.

Abstract
To enable correction or adjustment of a curtain travel curve in a case of driving an opening and closing blade by a power source in which a motor mechanism and a spring mechanism are combined. Provided are the motor mechanism that generates a traveling torque of the opening and closing blade of a mechanical shutter provided in an incident light path to an imaging element by electric conduction to a coil, and the spring mechanism that generates the traveling torque of the opening and closing blade together with the motor mechanism. In this case, a control unit capable of individually controlling a time length from the start of the electric conduction to the coil to the start of traveling of the opening and closing blade, and a value of a current to be supplied to the coil is provided.
