To prevent malfunction while attaining miniaturization and simplification or the like at the time of driving a shutter blade by an electromagnetic driving source.

This shutter device is provided with a first shutter blade 10 and a second shutter blade 20, a first electromagnetic driving source 30 and a second electromagnetic driving source 40 and a first magnetic sensor 50 and a second magnetic sensor 60 to detect the positional information of the shutter blade, and when the first magnetic sensor 50 or the second magnetic sensor 60 detects that the first shutter blade 10 or the second shutter blade 20 is deviated from a stand-by position before performing exposure operation, the shutter blade 10 or 20 deviated is returned to the stand-by position based on a detection signal. As a result, the malfunction is prevented, and the simplification of a structure and low power consumption or the like are attained.
