A digital camera includes an image sensor; a buffer memory adapted to receive images from the image sensor and to store the images therein; an image processor adapted to receive selected images and to process the selected images, including applying a video compression algorithm to the selected images; an image storage device adapted to store the processed, selected images; and an image selector adapted to select the selected images among the stored images in the buffer memory based on at least one image selection criterion, and to cause unselected stored images to be discarded from the buffer memory.

In an imaging device, a display control device, and a display device which are operable to conveniently display reduced images in accordance with a motion and an attitude at the time of shooting, a motion detection section detects the motion of the imaging device during continuous shooting. A recording section records reduced images of the shot images obtained by the imaging device, and motion information on the motion of the imaging device corresponding to the reduced images. An image extraction section extracts a plurality of the reduced images of the consecutively shooting from among the recorded reduced images. An image display control section causes a display section to display the extracted reduced images. An image display control section arranges the extracted reduced images in accordance with the motion information and causes the display section to display the extracted reduced images.

When image shooting is performed in a mode that records plural images in response to a single shooting instruction and deletion is instructed on a shot-image confirmation screen that displays the shot image data immediately after the shooting, the plural image data generated by the same shooting instruction are all collectively deleted. On the contrary, in a playback mode, when deletion is instructed to one of the plural image data shot by the same shooting instruction, only the one image that has been instructed for deletion is deleted. This feature improves usability of the image sensing apparatus capable of recording plural images in response to a single shooting instruction.

A digital photographing apparatus capable of more precisely obtaining a panoramic image than conventional cameras, a method of controlling the digital photographing apparatus, and a recording medium storing a program for executing the method. The method of controlling a digital photographing apparatus includes: obtaining a first image according to a user's signal; inverting the pixel values of a portion of the first image; obtaining a second image; and obtaining a third image by combining the first image and the second image.

A constant amount of new portion of image data as still images is always stored on a memory in an image taking operation. In response to a shutter release operation, the image data stored on the memory is recorded onto a recording medium. A next new portion of the image data generated subsequent to the shutter release operation is then recorded on the recording medium. A predetermined pixel count, smaller than a standard pixel count set in the image data subsequent to the shutter release operation, is set in the image data prior to the shutter release operation. Process time for multi-shot operation is shortened in order to prevent photo opportunity missing. The pixel count in the image data subsequent to the shutter release operation remains unchanged so that the image data of high image quality is acquired.

An image capture apparatus includes an image capture unit, an internal memory, a digital communication unit, a display unit and a control unit. The image capture unit captures an image. The internal memory stores the captured image. The digital communication unit sends the captured image stored in the internal memory to an external device. The control unit (i) selects a low-speed transfer mode if the display unit displays an image, and (ii) selects a high-speed transfer mode if the display unit does not display an image. Both the low-speed transfer mode and the high-speed transfer mode are used for transfer of data between the internal memory and the digital communication unit for transfer of the captured image to the external device.
摘要:
An information storage medium capable of recording and playing back still picture information is provided with a first information unit having one still picture information, and a first group unit which is composed of a set of first information units, and has a plurality of pieces of still picture information having different contents. Information is recorded in the first group unit.

An electronic camera having a continuous shooting function includes a resolution conversion unit capable of performing resolution conversion at least at a high resolution and at a low resolution that is lower than the high resolution, an image compression unit capable of performing image compression at least at a low compression factor and at a high compression factor that is higher than the low compression factor, and when a continuous shooting unit executes continuous shooting, the image compression unit performs image compression at a high compression factor if the resolution at the resolution conversion unit is set to a low resolution.
摘要:
A camera can take a picture at the instant of activating a shutter release button and can store a plurality of pictures which in a buffer storage. The plurality of pictures contains pictures taken before as well as after the traditionally taken picture. This provides the user with the possibility of reviewing the pictures taken at the instant of activation of the shutter release button as well as the pictures in the plurality of pictures and selecting one or more preferred pictures to be stored in a non-volatile memory of the camera.
