Abstract:
The present invention can easily acquire images having a uniform aspect ratio. In an imaging device of the invention, a control section detects the movement amount and the movement direction of the imaging device based on output from an acceleration sensor. Then, when the movement direction of the imaging device in its initial movement started at the beginning of imaging is substantially linear and a substantially horizontal or vertical direction, the control section calculates a reference movement amount by which a composite image having a predetermined aspect ratio can be generated, based on the movement amount of the imaging device, and controls the display section to display imaging area information (guide) indicating the final imaging area having the predetermined aspect ratio based on the reference movement amount.
Abstract:
There is provided an imaging apparatus including an imaging unit, an orthogonal axis information detecting unit that detects orthogonal axis information indicating an inclination of an orthogonal axis perpendicular to an optical axis of the imaging unit after imaging by the imaging unit, and a specifying unit that specifies a shooting posture of an apparatus body at time of imaging, based on the orthogonal axis information detected by the orthogonal axis information detecting unit.
Abstract:
An imaging device includes an imaging unit, a display unit, and a control unit. The control unit can: make the display unit successively display an entire image taken by the imaging unit as a live-view image, set a cutting region in an imaging range of the imaging unit, displace a position of the cutting region to track movement of a specific subject, fix the position of the cutting region before a first operation, displace the position of the cutting region to track movement of the specific subject after the first operation, and display an image at a region other than the cutting region in an entire image that is successively displayed on the display unit as the live-view image, at least before the first operation, so that the other region image is less prominently displayed in a predetermined display mode than a partial image corresponding to the cutting region.
Abstract:
An imaging device includes the following. A temporary storage cyclically stores images for a predetermined duration or number imaged in succession. A record controller records temporarily stored images for a first duration or a first number of images before detection of the capturing instruction, and records images for a second duration or a second number of images after detection of the capturing instruction. A setter preliminarily determines a total duration of the first duration and the second duration or a total number of the first number and the second number and determines a ratio of the first duration to the second duration or a ratio of the first number to the second number in response to one type of operation of an operational input unit, while retaining the preliminarily determined total duration or the preliminarily determined total number.
Abstract:
An imaging device to control a region of imaging, includes: an imaging unit; a display unit; and a control unit. The control unit is configured to: set a first region of a predetermined size at a predetermined position in an imaging range of the imaging unit; make the display unit display an image in the first region as live-view image; fix a position of the first region in the imaging range before a first operation is performed; after the first operation is performed, displace the position of the first region in the imaging range so as to track movement of a specific subject in the imaging range; and when a second operation is performed, following the first operation, record a partial image corresponding to the first region in an entire image taken by the imaging unit.
