Abstract: An image capture apparatus that performs interval shooting to acquire a plurality of captured images photographed with a predetermined photographing interval includes: an image capture unit; an image capture condition determination unit; and an interval shooting processing unit. The image capture unit is configured so as to be able to control focus. The image capture condition determination unit determines a photographing condition of an apparatus. The interval shooting processing unit controls focus of the image capture unit so as to change a focus control method for each photography in the interval shooting according to a photographing condition of the apparatus determined by the image capture condition determination unit.

Abstract: An image capture apparatus includes an interval shooting processing unit and an operation management control unit. It controls interval shooting to repeatedly execute photography processing that is set at a photographing interval that is set. The operation management control unit causes the contents of the power savings processing operation to change depending on the time required in photography processing, or the time required in recovery to a photography capable state. The image capture apparatus can thereby perform proper power savings control irrespective of the photography method of interval shooting.

Abstract: In the present invention, in interval photographing, a CPU performs still image photographing based on a capture interval and a capture length set for each scene in advance. Then, for each captured still image, the CPU calculates a difference between images, writes a judgment flag indicating whether the difference is exceeding a capture threshold in EXIF information, and stores all captured images. When the interval photographing is ended, the CPU reads out the captured images, performs time-lapse moving image generation processing by using images having a positive judgment flag in the EXIF information, and stores the result.

Abstract: In an image capture mode of a camera, a face area is detected from each of live-view images of a subject captured periodically (step S2). Information on the detected face area is stored in a detection result storage area (131) (step S4). When a shutter button is fully depressed (YES in step S5), a full-size image is acquired (step S6). Then, it is determined whether face area information is stored in the area 131 (step S7). If so (YES in step S7), information on an angle through which the camera is rotated to obtain a face area with the highest selection priority is selected from the face area information stored (step S8). Then, the face area detecting process is performed on the full-size image, using characteristic data on the face area involving the selected angle information (step S9).

Abstract: A digital camera has a human face dictionary set 151 for storing information defining peculiarities of a human face and a mode selection key 142 for selecting a first mode or a second mode, wherein the first mode is for putting priority to a speed at which the human face is detected and the second mode is for putting priority to accuracy of detecting the human face. When the first mode has been selected with the mode selection key 142, a control unit 7 controls a face detecting unit 15 to read less information from the human face dictionary set 151 than information to be read from the human face dictionary set 151 when the second mode has been selected, and to use the less information to detect a face of a person to be photographed with CCD 2. When the face of the person is detected, the control unit 7 processes a photographed image of the person based on image information of the detected face and records the processed image in an external memory 13.
