PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a technique which reduces an operation of a photographer when numerous pictures are taken with respect to a plurality of subjects. SOLUTION: In an imaging device 1, a plurality of microphones 15 are arranged in line. A control portion 11 of the imaging device 1 analyzes voice data indicating voice picked up in each of the microphones 15, and estimates a direction of a sound source according to an analysis result. Also, the control portion 11 matches voice data of voice from respective sound source directions estimated to matching data stored in a matching data storage range 121, and determines a presence/absence of a specific voice according to its matching level. When the specific voice is detected, the control portion 11 controls a turn mechanism 70, changes an imaging range so that the direction in which the specific voice is detected is included in the imaging range of the imaging device 1, and takes images.
