| 摘要 |
The invention provides an apparatus and method allowing flow shot images to be obtained effectively without increasing processing times or required memory capacity. A plurality of images (P1) through (P4) are obtained continuously by flow shooting. A reference image (P2) is selected from among the obtained images (P1) through (P4). Moving body regions are specified in corresponding images (P1), (P3), and (P4) other than the selected reference image (P2). The plurality of corresponding images (P1), (P3), and (P4) are positioned with respect to the reference image (P2) such that the amount of positioning is greater at the moving object regions than at non moving object regions. The plurality of corresponding images (P1), (P3), and (P4), which have been positioned, are combined with the reference image (P2), to obtain a combined image (C). |
