A photography device has an AF mechanism including: a CCD; an analog signal processing section; an image input controller; an AF processing section; a CPU; and a focusing lens driving section. The AF mechanism operates to focus an imaging lens on a subject. If an image represented by output from the CCD does not include a specific low contrast subject, image data representing the image is passed through a first high frequency filter that transmits components having frequencies greater than or equal to a first cutoff frequency, and a focus evaluation value is determined based on the transmitted components. If the image includes the specific subject, the image data is passed through a second high frequency filter that transmits components having frequencies greater than or equal to a second cutoff frequency, lower than the first cutoff frequency, and a focus evaluation value is determined based on the transmitted components.
