PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide systems and methods to improve autofocus in digital imaging systems, such as digital cameras. SOLUTION: Embodiments may include, in response to locking of lens focus on a subject image, determining an initial subject focus distance and an initial attitude, and in response to a request for an exposure, determining a final attitude. Embodiments may also include determining a final target subject distance based on the initial subject focus distance and a focus correction distance, where the focus correction distance is based on the difference between the initial attitude and the final attitude. Embodiments may also include focusing the lens at the final target subject distance. Further embodiments may include after focusing the lens at the final target subject distance, exposing an image. Other embodiments may include determining the initial and final attitude with a micro-electro-mechanical systems (MEMS)-based sensor or other sensor. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT |
