A dynamic range expanding apparatus in an image processing system, capable of more stably expanding dynamic visual range by removing motion blurring caused when images each having different exposure levels are combined, and a dynamic range expanding method, are provided. In this apparatus, a video multiplexing unit divides a digital video signal, which is converted from an analog video signal output by a charged coupled device, into an over-exposed video signal and an under-exposed video signal having different exposure levels. A motion correction unit corrects the moving part of an excessively-exposed video according to the amount of movement of an image acquired by the charged coupled device, using the output of the video multiplexing unit. A video output unit interpolates a dark part of a resultant signal corrected by the motion correction unit and a bright part of the under-exposed video signal using a luminance weight produced from the under-exposed video signal, and outputs the interpolated result as an expanded video signal having an expanded dynamic range.
