IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS

摘要

In an image processing apparatus that performs interval moving image capturing, interval image capturing and lighten compositing are sequentially performed, whereby an effective interval moving image can be obtained without advance techniques and cumbersome procedure that have been required for providing special effects to moving images.

1. An image processing apparatus comprising:
an acquisition unit configured to sequentially acquire pieces of image data; a combining unit configured to perform lighten compositing of selecting data with a larger value in a corresponding area between the pieces of image data to generate composite image data; an adjustment unit configured to perform adjustment processing to lower brightness on the composite image data output from the combining unit; and a generation unit configured to generate moving image data including frames each being the composite image data output from the combining unit, wherein the combining unit is configured to output new composite image data generated by performing the lighten compositing on the pieces of image data sequentially acquired by the acquisition unit and the composite image data subjected to the adjustment processing output from the adjustment unit.
