Abstract: An imaging device comprises an imaging optical system with a plurality of lenses, a focusing manipulation component, an imaging state switching manipulation component, and first, second, third, and fourth restrictors. The focusing manipulation component can be turned to change the focal position formed by the imaging optical system. The imaging state switching manipulation component can be turned to move lenses and switch between the first imaging state and the second imaging state. When the imaging state switching manipulation component is turned, the range over which the focusing manipulation component can be turned is switched from a first range that is restricted by first and second restrictors, to a second range that is restricted by third and fourth restrictors and that is at least partly shifted from the first range.
