Abstract:
A photographing apparatus includes a photographing module, an image processor, a line-of-sight direction determination module, a main subject determination module, and an emphasis processor. The line-of-sight direction determination module determines a line-of-sight direction of the photographer by comparing with the reference line-of-sight direction of the photographer in the image data acquired by the image processor. The main subject determination module determines a main subject to be photographed by the photographer, based on the line-of-sight direction determined by the line-of-sight direction determination module. The emphasis processor executes an emphasis process on the main subject determined by the main subject determination module.

Abstract:
An image capturing apparatus includes a main body and a rotatable image capturing unit. The main body includes a spherical portion having at least three support points. The rotatable image capturing unit includes an image capturing optical system, and is configured to rotationally move while being supported by the support points. In the rotatable image capturing unit, a gravitional point is located so as to overlap a center of gravity of a polygonal plane formed by connecting the support points and present on a side closer to an image sensor the polygonal plane in a direction perpendicular to the polygonal plane.

Abstract:
A photographing apparatus according to the present invention comprises: an accumulation control section controlling an accumulation operation in an imaging section; an accumulation start timing setting section setting a timing of accumulation start in the imaging section; and a flash light emission control section controlling the start and stop of light emission in the flash light emission section, wherein the accumulation control section instructs the flash light emission control section to start the flash light emission and causes the imaging section to start the accumulation based on an output of the accumulation start timing setting section, and the flash light emission control section causes the flash light emission to be started in response to the flash light emission start instruction of the accumulation control section and causes the flash light emission section to stop the light emission based on an appropriate light emission amount output by an exposure calculation section.
Abstract:
An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit, a random seed generating unit, a pseudo-random number generating unit, and a special image processing unit. The imaging unit photographs a subject to obtain image data. The random seed generating unit generates a random seed to decide a pseudo-random number sequence. The pseudo-random number generating unit generates a pseudo-random number in accordance with the generated random seed. The special image processing unit performs special image processing to apply a special effect to the image data based on the generated pseudo-random number. The random seed is decided during photography.
