Abstract

This imaging device comprises: a storage unit that sequentially stores a plurality of frame images based on an imaging signal from an imaging sensor for capturing images of a subject light and also stores a still image corresponding to any of the plurality of frame images; a movie image generation unit that generates slow-motion movie images to be played back at a second frame rate lower than a first frame rate indicative of the number of frame images stored in the storage unit in a unit of time, on the basis of the plurality of frame images stored in the storage unit; and an image stabilization amount calculation unit that uses, as a reference, the frame image corresponding to the still image from among the plurality of frame images, to calculate an image stabilization amount for the slow-motion movie images.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
1 . An imaging device, comprising:
 a storage unit that sequentially stores a plurality of frame images based on an imaging signal from an imaging sensor that captures images of a subject light and also stores a still image corresponding to any of the plurality of frame images;   a movie image generation unit that generates slow-motion movie images to be played back at a second frame rate lower than a first frame rate indicative of the number of frame images stored in the storage unit in a unit of time, on the basis of the plurality of frame images stored in the storage unit;   an image stabilization amount calculation unit that uses, as a reference, the frame image corresponding to the still image from among the plurality of frame images, to calculate an image stabilization amount for the slow-motion movie images; and   a still image generation unit that generates still image data by processing any frame image, as the reference, of the plurality of frame images corresponding to the still image based on the calculated stabilization amount.
