a memory that stores movable amount information acquired by associating the zoom magnification of the zoom lens with a movable amount of the imaging element based on the driving of the holder,

wherein, when a movement amount of the imaging element based on the detection value of the shake sensor exceeds the movable amount of the imaging element corresponding to the zoom magnification of the zoom lens, the processor causes the lens unit to change the zoom magnification of the zoom lens, cuts the part of the captured image on which the shake correction is performed by the shake correction mechanism through the zoom process, and outputs the cut part of the captured image, and
