A target image is deformed in such a manner that a subject in a reference image and a subject in the target image will coincide. A reference image and a target image are each divided into regions that conform to amounts of optical distortion. A region which is in the target image and which is common to the reference image and to the target image is subdivided into regions S35 to S37, S38 to S40, S42 to S44 in each of which amounts of optical distortion of both the reference image and target image are obtained. By using the amounts of optical distortion of the reference image and amounts of optical distortion of the target image 11 obtained from the subdivided regions S35 to S37, S38 to S40, S42 to S44, the target image is deformed in such a manner that a subject in the common region will coincide with the reference image. |
