The present invention employs hybrid zoom control which selects one of predetermined reading speeds in accordance with an operator specified scale factor and which then reads an image at the predetermined reading speed, the hybrid zoom control then controlling image processing inside the device to change the scale factor of the image and subsequently storing the resultant image. Accordingly, a required read area is read in accordance with a reading scale factor. Therefore, the present invention can reduce a burden on a memory or image scale factor changing process to obtain high-quality scale-factor-changed images.
