Piezo actuators can make very fine movements. You can get positioning systems that can adjust position by nanometers, even sub-nm [1].
Also, cameras have had stabilization systems for a while now; I would assume they need similar pixel-scale precision. Some cameras shift the lens, some shift the sensor, but either way they need to shift the image-on-sensor by a very small amount, and also do it very rapidly.
