There is provided an endoscope device capable of coping with erroneous operation of an operator by controlling not to perform an operation which is not desired by the operator but has been performed by the operator. The endoscope (1) includes and endoscope (2) and a processor (3). The endoscope (2) has a switch unit (2A). The processor (3) has a CPU (3E) and an operation panel (3F). When the processor (3) detects that a first instruction signal is transmitted from the switch unit (2A) and a second instruction signal is transmitted from an operation panel (3F), and that an instruction for performing a predetermined operation is not performed normally in one of the instruction signal and the instruction for performing an operation other than the predetermined operation is performed normally in the other instruction signal, the CPU (3E) stops transmission of the one instruction signal and makes the operation content instructed by the other instruction signal valid.
