A control unit is provided which drives a stepping motor in a first mode in which a driving pulse is selected between one kind of main driving pulse and a correction driving pulse with energy greater than the one kind of main driving pulse in accordance with a rotation state of the stepping motor and the stepping motor is driven or a second mode in which the driving pulse is selected among plural kinds of main driving pulses and a correction driving pulse with energy greater than the plural kinds of main driving pulses in accordance with the rotation state of the stepping motor and the stepping motor is driven. The control unit switches a mode between the first and second modes depending on whether the voltage of a secondary cell serving as a power supply exceeds a switch voltage and drives the stepping motor.

Disclosed is a chronograph timepiece in which it is possible to prevent the battery reliability service life time from being exceeded even when the period of time that the chronograph function is used is short, making it possible to prevent failure generation in the chronograph timepiece due to liquid leakage. A 24-hour counter down-counts a period of time that has elapsed starting from 24 hours, and a chronograph counter down-counts the period of time that chronograph measurement operation is performed from a predetermined time; when the count values of the 24-hour counter and the chronograph counter become equal to each other, a processing unit consumes a battery for the residual period of time of the two counters by a battery power consuming unit.

When it is judged that a chronograph second counter and a chronograph minute counter have measured a maximum measurement time, a maximum measurement control unit controls a drive pulse generation circuit so as to drive and stop a motor such that chronograph hand stops at predetermined positions. When, in this state, a restarting operation is performed on a start/stop button, a normal chronograph measurement operation is restarted. At this time, a mechanical structure has been restored to a reset state, so that even at the time of restarting after the measurement of the maximum measurement time, the load at the starting operation is the same as that of the normal operation, thus generating no sense of incongruity.

An image synthesis device selects frame images in an order stored in a DRAM, and calculates the characteristic amount of the selected frame image. The image synthesis device searches a block having the calculated characteristic amount in a next frame, and calculates a moving vector. The image synthesis device sets an extraction width which is a width of a partial image to be extracted based on the calculated moving vector, and extracts an image at the extraction width from the central line in a current frame image. The image synthesis device combines and synthesizes the extracted partial image with the end portion, opposite to the moving vector, of a panorama synthetic image synthesized at this point, i.e., the end portion of the moving direction of an electronic camera.

A detection interval in which the rotation status of a stepping motor is divided into a first interval immediately after driving executed by a main driving pulse, a second interval later than the first interval, and a third interval later than the second interval. The driving is executed by a correction driving pulse and the main driving pulse is increased, when a control circuit drives the stepping motor in a driving way different from a driving way at the time of exceeding a predetermined voltage in a case where the voltage of a secondary battery is lowered to be equal to or less than the predetermined voltage and when a rotation detection circuit and a detection time comparison determination circuit detect an induced signal exceeding a first reference threshold voltage in the first interval and the second interval and do not detect the induced signal exceeding a second reference threshold voltage lower than the first reference threshold voltage in the third interval.
