1. An imaging device for reproducing images comprising:
- a viewfinder for displaying an imaging signal representing the image to be reproduced to a user of said imaging device; and
a hand wobble display circuit, connected to said viewfinder, for generating a difference signal from said imaging signal and displaying said difference signal on said viewfinder, the magnitude of said difference signal indicating the degree of hand wobble of said imaging device by said user.

Abstract
An imaging device such as a video camera having a viewfinder for displaying an imaging signal to the photographer which indicates the degree of hand wobble (i.e., movement of the camera by the photographer). A hand wobble display circuit generates this imaging signal for the viewfinder by generating a field-difference or a frame-difference signal of the electronic viewfinder signal and displaying the difference signal on the viewfinder. The magnitude of the difference signal can be used to determine the degree of hand wobble.
