Abstract

The present invention relates to an image processing unit, an image processing method and a program. The image processing unit includes: an input part, the input part inputs a plurality of images, each image is associated with a difference amount from the in-focus state, and the difference amount from the in-focus state is determined according to the number of images generated in the plurality of images respectively. detection of the amount of difference between images of the subject divided during image generation in continuous shooting in which a series of images are successively generated in time sequence; and a selection portion in accordance with the in-focus state From the multiple images, select the image with the highest degree of focus.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an image processing unit, and more particularly, to an image processing unit capable of selecting one image from a plurality of images generated by continuous shooting, an image processing method, and a program enabling a computer to execute the method. Background technique [0002] Recently, photographing apparatuses, such as digital still cameras, for photographing an image of a subject such as a person, generating a photographic image of the subject, and recording the photographic image have come into widespread use. Some of these popular photographic devices are equipped with a continuous photographing (ie, continuous shooting) function. [0003] A plurality of continuously captured photographic images may be recorded; the user can expect a target photographic image to be included in the plurality of continuously captured photographic images. However, manual selection of a target photographic image from a plurality...
