The present invention relates to an image capturing device for applying auto-focus processing triggered in response to an operation of half-pressing a shutter button, and initiating image capturing triggered in response to an operation of full-pressing the shutter button. In the image capturing device, an image capturing mode control section detects an operational interval T between the half-pressing operation to the full-pressing operation, and, when the operational interval is longer than a predetermined threshold interval T<SUB>0</SUB>, selects a focus priority mode in which auto-focus processing is continued and image capturing is initiated after completion of the auto-focus processing, and, when the operational interval T is shorter than the threshold interval T<SUB>0</SUB>, selects a shutter chance priority mode in which the auto-focus processing is stopped and image capturing is instantly initiated.
