A solid-state electronic image sensing device senses the image of a subject repeatedly for an exposure time over which camera shake is thought not to occur, and repeatedly outputs image data representing the image of the subject. A combining device generates one frame of a combined image obtained by combining the image of the subject represented by image data that has been output from the solid-state electronic image sensing device with the image of the subject represented by image data that was output from the solid-state electronic image sensing device by an immediately preceding image sensing operation, in such a manner that the images of the subject coincide. A combining control device controls the combining device so as to repeatedly execute processing for generating one frame of a combined image updated by combining the combined image, which is the result of combination by the combining device, with the image of the subject represented by image data that has been output from the solid-state electronic image sensing device, in such a manner that the images coincide. |
