摘要： An imaging apparatus for performing efficient signal processing depending on the operational mode. In the finder mode, a CCD interface 21a decimates horizontal components of image data supplied from an image generating unit 10 to one-third and moreover processes the decimated image data with data conversion and resolution conversion to produce Y, Cb and Cr image data which are routed to and written in an image memory 32 over a memory controller 22. In the recording mode, the CCD interface 21a causes the image data from the image generating unit 10 to be written in the image memory 32 via memory controller 22 after decimation and gamma correction etc. The camera DSP 21c reads out the image data via memory controller 22 from the image memory 32 to effect data conversion for writing the resulting data via memory controller 22 in the image memory 32.

摘要： In a digital camera, when snapshot shooting is instructed during recording of a moving image, a shot still image is temporarily pushed aside in a memory area for use in pushing aside (7a) in a frame buffer (7). A currently shooting motion image and a still image are displayed in parallel on a display (9), so that a user can confirm a content of a snapshot. The moving image continues to be recorded even during a push-aside operation. After a moving image processing is completed, the still image is processed by an image correcting circuit (4). The frame buffer (7) comprises a plurality of frame recording areas, and is shared on the occasions of a moving image processing and a still image processing. In a normal moving image processing, these areas are utilized in a cyclic manner, and when the still image is shot, any of areas will be utilized. Thereafter, the rest of areas are utilized in the cyclic manner for the moving images. The recording function for the moving image and still image is improved at low cost, it becomes easy to take a snapshot, and the merchandise size is not increased.

摘要： An electronic still camera, for recording the image signal in compressed state in a memory medium such as a memory card, is provided with a calculation circuit, for calculating the remaining number of still recordable frames in the memory medium in more reliable manner, and the number of already recorded frames and the remaining number of still recordable frames are simultaneously displayed in order to inform the photographer of the remaining state of the memory card in securer manner.The remaining frame number is calculated in securer manner by detecting the remaining capacity of the memory card and dividing the remaining capacity with the amount of compressed signal averaged over the latest 100 image frames. A display device is provided for indicating thus determined remaining frame number together with the number of already recorded frames.For calculating the remaining frame number in more reliable manner, there are determined the average data amount of the recorded frames, the standard deviation, and the remaining capacity of the memory card, and the minimum remaining frame number is determined by dividing the remaining capacity with the average data amount plus standard deviation, while the maximum remaining frame number is determined by dividing the remaining capacity with the average data amount minus standard deviation. Also there is provided a display device for indicating the remaining frame number in the form of a range defined by the minimum and maximum remaining frame numbers.
