FOLLOW-FOCUS WHEEL ASSEMBLY, HANDHELD DEVICE AND PHOTOGRAPHING SYSTEM

A follow-focus wheel assembly includes a supporting member, a follow-focus plate, and a follow-focus wheel. The supporting member includes a supporting seat and a mounting seat formed by extending outward from the supporting seat; the follow-focus plate and the follow-focus wheel are located on two sides of the mounting seat respectively, and the follow-focus wheel passes through a through hole on the mounting seat and then connects to the follow-focus plate in a rotatable manner. The supporting member is used for connecting an external structure, and the follow-focus wheel assembly is mounted in the external structure via the supporting member, where the follow-focus wheel partially extends out of the external structure when the supporting member is connected to the external structure. The follow-focus wheel assembly has a simple and compact structure, and can be miniaturized. It meets the requirement of performing a focusing operation with a single hand.

Provided are an imaging device capable of assisting focusing without giving uncomfortable feeling, a focusing assistance method thereof, and a focusing assistance program thereof. In a case where manual focusing is assisted by moving an image sensor, a focus adjustment speed by an imaging lens is detected. In a case where the focus adjustment speed by the imaging lens is reduced to a threshold value or less, the assistance is started by moving the image sensor. At this time, a focusing assistance unit is brought into an in-focus state by controlling the movement of the image sensor such that the sum of the focus adjustment speed by the imaging lens and a focus adjustment speed by the movement of the image sensor is set to a speed equal to or less than the threshold value.
