The invention relates to an exposure time, frame rate and smear test device and a test method. The test device and the method use a brightness adjusting mechanism to adjust brightness of a target plate. A rotation power component drives the target plate to rotate uniformly as a preset angular velocity. A tested image acquisition system carries out photographing and recording on the target plate. The target plate is provided with a distinguished pattern. Through a pattern angle and position changes, a single frame rotation angle and the preset angular velocity of the known target plate are acquired. And then, exposure time of the image acquisition system is calculated. A rotation angle between two adjacent frame corresponding points in a video and the preset angular velocity are used to calculate a frame rate of the image acquisition system. Deflection of a pattern in a photograph is used to calculate a length of a smear generated by the image acquisition system. By using the test device and the method, a defect that the exposure time of the tested image acquisition system is difficult to adjust is overcome; in a highlight environment, the test can still be performed.

To improve the image quality in an imaging apparatus. A synchronization signal generator generates a synchronization signal indicating a synchronization timing for each of synchronization intervals. A synchronization interval controller changes, when an amount of change of the synchronization interval is input, the synchronization interval according to the amount of change.

An exposure controller changes, when the amount of change is input, at least one of the start-setting time and the end-setting time on the basis of the amount of change.
