An imaging apparatus configured to capture an image of an object to be detected is provided. The image apparatus includes an imaging unit, a lens, and a front cover. The lens is disposed on the imaging unit and has a first optical axis. The front cover is rotatably connected to the lens. The relative positions between the front cover and the object are fixed by the front cover and the object leaning against each other. The lens rotates with respect to the front cover, so that the first optical axis rotates in respect to the object.一種攝像裝置,適於擷取一待測物的影像。攝像裝置包括一攝像單元、一鏡頭及一前蓋。鏡頭配置於攝像單元上,且具有一第一光軸。前蓋可轉動地連接至鏡頭。前蓋藉由承靠來固定前蓋與待測物的相對位置。鏡頭相對於前蓋旋轉,以使第一光軸相對於待測物旋轉。100‧‧‧攝像裝置101‧‧‧使用者介面110‧‧‧攝像單元112‧‧‧影像感測器114‧‧‧控制單元120‧‧‧鏡頭130‧‧‧前蓋150‧‧‧萬向接頭AL‧‧‧待測物R‧‧‧鏡頭環SW‧‧‧開關元件X1‧‧‧第一光軸
