Abstract: There is provided an imaging apparatus that is resistant to electromagnetic noise and can be readily manufactured at low cost. An outer frame member 7 is provided with an inner frame member 6, which is a box-shaped metal shell, to suppress influence of electromagnetic noise on the interior of the outer frame member 7.
