<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To pick up an image free of exposure unevenness even in a scene affected by flash light emission from other person, in a rolling shutter system imaging apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: Exposure starts with a delay in exposure start timing for each line for a CMOS sensor without using a mechanical shutter, and imaging with the rolling shutter system is performed to read information on each line sequentially, starting from a line where a predetermined exposure time has passed, so that an image of one frame of an object to be recorded is acquired (at step S10). Existence or non-existence of exposure unevenness due to other person's flash light emission contained in the acquired image of the object to be recorded is detected (at step S12). When exposure unevenness is detected, a warning indicating the exposure unevenness is issued (at step S16), and recording processing is performed or is canceled dependent on recording/cancel instruction input from a photographer (at steps S18 and S20). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
