摘要： An image is obtained using a photographing unit including an optical system provided with an aperture and focus adjusting mechanism. Two or more types of subjects are detected from the image. When the two or more types of subjects are detected from the image, one priority subject is determined among the two or more types of subjects. The aperture and the optical system are adjusted so that the priority subject is focused and the subject other than the priority subject is within a depth of field of the photographing unit.

摘要： An automatic exposure control method is used to control a shooting exposure parameter for shooting an image by a shooting end. At least one middle brightness value is acquired between a brightness value of a background region and an overall brightness value, and then a relation between working distances of a flash light and a practical distance of an object is determined sequentially from the brightness value of the background region to extend towards the overall brightness value, in which the working distances of the flash light are respectively corresponding to the brightness value of the background region, the middle brightness values, and the overall brightness value, so as to obtain a shooting exposure parameter and to selectively activate the flash light, thereby adjusting the overall brightness of the image to be shot, so as to obtain an image with a proper overall brightness.

摘要： A photographing apparatus and method are provided that are capable of suppressing noise generation in a captured image obtained by photographing an object by radiating light uniformly over the entire screen. Such capability results even from a light emitting unit which performs pulse light emission when exposure timing differs for every horizontal line. The photographing apparatus includes an X-Y address type photographing device and exposes the X-Y address type photographing device to photograph an object. The photographing apparatus includes a pulse light emitting unit repeating light emission and light non-emission toward the object in association with a photographing manipulation and a light emission time control unit controlling light emission such that a period of light emission or light non-emission of the pulse light emitting unit is equal to 1/n of an exposure time of the X-Y address type photographing device, wherein n is an integer greater than 1.
