IMAGE CAPTURING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING THE SAME

摘要

An image capturing apparatus comprises: an image-capturing unit acquiring RAW image data indicating a pre-development image from an image signal; recording unit encoding the RAW image data by a predetermined encoding method and recording the encoded RAW image data in a medium; a developing unit reading out the encoded RAW image data and developing the read encoded RAW image data; and a control unit comparing an amount of the encoded RAW image data that was recorded in a shooting time period with an amount of the encoded RAW image data that was read out from the medium so as to be used in development, and controlling an encoding method by which the RAW image data is encoded according to a comparison result.

1. An image capturing apparatus comprising:
an image-capturing unit configured to acquire RAW image data indicating a pre-development image from an image signal that was captured by an image sensor; recording unit configured to encode the RAW image data by a predetermined encoding method and record the encoded RAW image data in a recording medium; a developing unit configured to read out the encoded RAW image data from the recording medium and develop the read encoded RAW image data; and a control unit configured to compare an amount of the encoded RAW image data that was recorded in a shooting time period by the image-capturing unit with an amount of the encoded RAW image data that was read out from the recording medium so as to be used in development by the developing unit, and to control an encoding method by which the RAW image data is encoded according to a comparison result.
