Shooting device and program

摘要

The present invention provides a shooting device and a program that can recognize shooting scenes according to the situation with a high degree of precision. In at least one of a case where GPS information has not been acquired by a GPS receiver 58 within a predetermined period after the GPS receiver 58 has been activated, a case where the GPS information has been acquired by the GPS receiver 58 within the predetermined period after the GPS receiver 58 has been activated but the acquired GPS information has not been stored in a database C, and a case where a subject image has been acquired by shooting without the GPS receiver 58 being activated, the shooting device recognizes the shooting scene at the current shooting location on the basis of at least one of the subject image acquired by the shooting and shooting support information.

主权项

1. A shooting device comprising:
shooting means that shoots a subject to thereby acquire a subject image; acquiring means which, in a case where it has been activated, utilizes GPS to acquire GPS information identifying the position of the shooting location; activating means that activates the acquiring means in a case where a predetermined condition has been met; storing means in which position information items representing geographical positions identifiable by the GPS information and shooting scene information items representing shooting scenes at the positions represented by the position information items are intercorrelated and stored beforehand; and scene recognizing means which, in a case where the GPS information acquired by the acquiring means activated by the activating means corresponds to a position information item stored in the storing means, recognizes the shooting scene at the current shooting location on the basis of the shooting scene information item correlated with that position information item and at least one of the subject image acquired by the shooting means and shooting support information that is acquired prior to shooting for acquiring the subject image and supports that shooting, wherein in the case where the GPS information acquired by the acquiring means activated by the activating means corresponds to a position information item stored in the storing means, the scene recognizing means selects, from plural shooting scene candidate information items representing predetermined plural shooting scene candidates, shooting scene candidate information items to which at least one of the subject image acquired by the shooting means and the shooting support information is similar with a degree of similarity equal to or greater than a predetermined degree of similarity, and among the selected shooting scene candidate information items, the scene recognizing means recognizes, as the shooting scene at the current shooting location, the shooting scene candidate represented by the shooting scene candidate information item corresponding to the shooting scene information item among the shooting scene information items stored in the storing means that is correlated with the position information item corresponding to the GPS information acquired by the acquiring means.
