An image pickup device is constituted by a handset of cellular phone, wherein an image pickup unit (16, 17, 74, 101, 102) photographs a user as first object (50), to output image data of a first image frame (55, 65, 91, 96). A facial region detecting circuit (45) retrieves a facial image portion of the user as first object according to image data of the first image frame. An image synthesizing circuit is supplied with image data of a second image frame (54, 66, 92, 98) including persons as second object (52). The facial image portion is synthesized in a background region (53) being defined outside the persons as second object within the second image frame. <IMAGE> |
