Image sensing apparatus, image processing method, recording medium, and program

摘要

It is an object of the present invention to compress the image sensing data of a photographed image using different image compression schemes to generate image files compressed by respective image compression schemes without decreasing the throughput in photographing operation. In order to attain the above object, a lossless encoder which compresses image sensing data by a lossless compression scheme and a lossy encoder which compresses the image sensing data by a lossy compression scheme are provided in a digital signal processing unit. With this arrangement, image sensing data can be compressed by a lossless compression scheme in the lossless encoder and at the same time can be compressed by a lossy compression scheme in the lossy encoder at one photographing operation, thereby generating compressed image files compressed by respective image compression schemes without decreasing the throughput.
