| 20090167878 | IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS, INTERCHANGEABLE LENS UNIT, CAMERA BODY, AND ULTRASONIC MOTOR DRIVING APPARATUS - An image pickup apparatus of the present invention is an image pickup apparatus including an ultrasonic motor | 07-02-2009 |
| 20090268310 | LENS DRIVING APPARATUS, IMAGING APPARATUS, AND LENS BARREL AND CAMERA MAIN BODY USED FOR THIS - A lens position calculator is provided that determines a phase of a driving signal as a reference position of an imaging lens when an output value of a position detection sensor reaches a threshold value. The lens position calculator determines a position obtained by performing addition or subtraction on the reference position read out from a reference position storage as a judgment position, detects an output value of the position detection sensor at a timing in synchronization with the driving signal that drives a driver and at the judgment position, and judges whether the output value of the position detection sensor at the judgment position reaches the threshold value or not, so as to determine the reference position again. | 10-29-2009 |
| 20090284643 | IMAGING APPARATUS AND CAMERA SYSTEM - An imaging apparatus includes an optical system including a focus lens, a driver configured to drive the focus lens, a controller configured to control a supply of power to the driver, and a setting unit configured to set a power supply mode for specifying a method of supplying power to the driver. When a predetermined power supply mode is set, the controller determines according to a magnitude of a depth of field of the optical system during whether holding power for holding the state of the focus lens is supplied to the driver when the focus lens is stopped, and controls the supply of the holding power to the driver according to the result of the determination. | 11-19-2009 |
| 20100310245 | LENS DRIVING APPARATUS, IMAGING APPARATUS, AND LENS BARREL AND CAMERA MAIN BODY USED FOR THIS - A lens position calculator is provided that determines a phase of a driving signal as a reference position of an imaging lens when an output value of a position detection sensor reaches a threshold value.
