A focus state is respectively detected for each region (140A) in the photographing screen (140) (step S16). Then, an AF frame (142) moves in accordance with the movement of a group of regions in best focus in the AF frame (142) (step S18), while automatic focusing is simultaneously performed so that a subject (144) in the AF frame (142) comes into best focus (step S20).</p> |
