20080309792IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS AND EXPOSURE CONTROL METHOD - A digital still camera includes a lens system and an image sensor. The image sensor receives object light through the lens system to output an image signal of an object, wherein exposure control and autofocus control of the lens system are carried out according to the image signal. The image sensor photographs an image of the object after the exposure control and the autofocus control. Auxiliary light is applied to the object with an illumination light source for the autofocus control. A second exposure value is determined by use of a first exposure value determined according to object brightness measured while the illumination light source is inactive. Exposure is carried out to measure object brightness by use of the second exposure value while the auxiliary light is applied, for determining a third exposure value for use in the autofocus control with the auxiliary light.12-18-2008
20110043659IMAGING DEVICE CAPABLE OF REDUCING POWER CONSUMPTION - An electronic camera is provided with a power-saving S-AF mode and a C-AF mode as focus adjustment modes. In the S-AF mode, focus adjustment is performed upon half depression of a release button. In the C-AF mode, the focus adjustment is repeated during a shooting mode regardless of the half depression of the release button to simplify the focus adjustment of a shooting time so that shooting is smoothly performed. When the electronic camera is set to the shooting mode, an AF controller obtains an Ev value representing subject brightness. The Ev value is compared with a threshold value stored in a memory. When the Ev value exceeds the threshold value, the focus adjustment mode is changed to the S-AF mode. When the Ev value falls below the threshold value, the focus adjustment mode is changed to the C-AF mode.02-24-2011

20090021616IMAGE-TAKING APPARATUS - In response to a release button being pushed, a system control section informs a timing generation section of the number of images to be shot to carry out high-speed continuous shooting. A first image obtained by continuous shooting is stored in a frame memory of an imaging section. While a superimposed image based on continuously shot images is generated by a camera-shake correction section, the first image stored in the frame memory is output to a preprocessing section so that the preprocessing section generates a high-sensitivity image by increasing the gain of an amplifying circuit in the preprocessing section. A signal processing section reads the superimposed image generated by the camera-shake correction section and the high-sensitivity image generated by the preprocessing section and applies image processing to these two images. The system control section causes a recording/reproducing section to record the two images in a recording medium.01-22-2009

20090009636IMAGE TAKING APPARATUS - When a release button is pressed in the image adding mode and flash-on mode, a system control section instructs a timing generation section to continuously supply a timing signal to an imaging section, thereby causing the imaging section to perform high speed continuous shooting. A flash is caused to emit light in sync with taking the last one of images taken by the continuous shooting such that the amount of the emitted light results in underexposure for one image. The continuous images taken by the imaging section are sequentially output via a preprocessing section to a blurring correction section where the taken images are superimposed upon each other to obtain an image of appropriate exposure in which blurring has been corrected.01-08-2009

20080232779IMAGE TAKING APPARATUS AND IMAGE REPRODUCTION APPARATUS - In an image taking apparatus, when a sound detecting mode is selected, a sound from the object side is picked up by a microphone at the time of shooting and the volume of the sound is recorded by being associated with the shot image. At the time of reproduction, images each having a sound of not less than a certain volume are displayed.09-25-2008
20080239084IMAGE TAKING APPARATUS - There is provided an image taking apparatus capable of preferably correcting both the camera shake and the subject shake in the still picture photography. The image taking apparatus has a system control section that determines whether a subject is a still subject or a dynamic subject. When the system control section determines that the subject is the still subject, the system control section instructs a timing generation section to cause an imaging section to generate a series of images, so that an image piling up section performs piling up of images in accordance with a computed result with a movement vector computing section. Thus, the camera shake is corrected. When the system control section determines that the subject is the dynamic subject, the system control section instructs the timing generation section to perform a single photography at a predetermined shutter time free from the subject shake.10-02-2008
