Abstract: When an image is photographed via a plurality of optical members which are disposed along a photographing optical axis, a direction and an amount of shake, which occurs, are detected. An imaging device is moved along a plane perpendicular to the photographing optical axis, on the basis of the detected direction and amount of shake. A position on the photographing optical axis of at least one of the optical members is corrected in accordance with data of the movement.

Abstract: A first insulating film includes five extension lines formed between connection pad portions of adjacent two predetermined wiring lines. The first insulating film also includes peripheral portions of the adjacent two connection pad portions on both sides of the five extension lines. A second insulating film made of a polyimide resin or the like is formed on the upper surface of the first insulating layer by a screen printing method or ink jet method. Since a short circuit may be easily caused by electromigration in a region where the five extension lines are parallel to another, the short circuit due to the electromigration can be prevented by covering only that region with the second insulating film. Accordingly, the region where the second insulating film is formed can be as small as possible, and the semiconductor wafer does not easily warp.
