Original Abstract Submitted
A pixel shifting device according to the present disclosure includes a first frame for holding an optical member, a second frame to be coupled to the first frame, a base to be coupled to the second frame, a pair of second oscillation shaft formation parts for coupling the second frame and the base to each other, and a pair of second actuators arranged across the second oscillation axis and for oscillating the second frame. The pair of second oscillation shaft formation parts include a one-side coupling shaft part for coupling the second frame and the base to each other at the actuator holding parts side, and another-side coupling shaft part for coupling the second frame and the base to each other at an opposite side to the actuator holding parts, and the another-side coupling shaft part is lower in rigidity than the one-side coupling shaft part.
