<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an apparatus capable of associating an object region detected based on an image with a focal position. <P>SOLUTION: A camera 100 comprises: image generation means 130 that photoelectrically converts an object image formed by an imaging optical system 101 to generate an image; and face detecting circuit 121 that detects a plurality of object regions on the basis of the image generated by the image generation means 130. The face detecting circuit 121 detects an object region at a plurality of focal positions to which the imaging optical system 101 is moved, and when an object region can be detected, stores the focal position of the imaging optical system 101 in association with the object region. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
