Imaging device

Abstract

The imaging device includes: an imaging unit that generates image data from optical information input through an optical system unit; an image processor that performs a predetermined process to the image data generated by the imaging unit; and a controller that generates video data. The controller sets a set value relating to the video capturing in each of a first video mode and a second video mode, and automatically sets the set value relating to the video capturing in the second video mode to a set value more suitable for recording a still image than in the first video mode. A bracket capturing that creates a plurality of image data by changing at least one of capturing setting conditions is performed at a time of recording in the second video mode.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An imaging device comprising:
 an imaging unit that generates image data from optical information input through an optical system unit;   an image processor that performs a predetermined process to the image data generated by the imaging unit; and   a controller that controls at least one of the optical system unit, the imaging unit, and the image processor based on a set value relating to video capturing so as to generate video data,   wherein the controller sets a set value relating to the video capturing in each of a first video mode and a second video mode, and automatically sets the set value relating to the video capturing in the second video mode to a set value more suitable for recording a still image than in the first video mode, and   wherein a bracket capturing that creates a plurality of image data by changing at least one of capturing setting conditions is performed at a time of recording in the second video mode.   
     
     
         2 . The imaging device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 while the bracket capturing that creates the plurality of image data by the changing at least one of the capturing setting conditions is performed, the recording in the second video mode is performed from start to end of a video recording.   
     
     
         3 . The imaging device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 at least one of the capturing setting conditions is at least one of an exposure value, a shutter speed, a focus point, and a color tone.   
     
     
         4 . The imaging device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the bracket capturing that creates the plurality of image data by changing a plurality of the capturing setting conditions is performed at the time of recording in the second video mode.   
     
     
         5 . The imaging device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 the bracket capturing is performed in a GOP (group of picture).   
     
     
         6 . The imaging device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 when the video data acquired by the bracket capturing is reproduced, only I image in a GOP (group of picture) is reproduced.   
     
     
         7 . The imaging device according to  claim 1 , wherein
 when the video data acquired by the bracket capturing is reproduced frame by frame, images other than I image in a GOP (group of picture) are displayed.
