1. An imaging apparatus comprising:
a flow path including a flow direction diverter that changes a direction of air flow;
a fan that generates airflow in the flow path;
a heat dissipation member including a first fin, a second fin, and a third fin disposed in the flow path; and
an object to be cooled connected to the heat dissipation member, wherein
the first fin is a pin-shaped fin disposed in the flow direction diverter in the flow path,
the second fin is a plate-shaped fin disposed in a section being downstream of the flow direction diverter in the flow path,
the third fin is a plate-shaped fin disposed in a section being upstream of the flow direction diverter in the flow path, and
the fan is disposed in the flow path between the first fin and the third fin.
