    Abstract: An image processing device includes an operation time information obtaining unit, a movement control unit, a movement target position determination unit and a movement manner determination unit. The operation time information obtaining unit obtains information on a period of time needed for a designation operation for designating a partial area in a screen. The movement control unit moves a virtual camera and/or an operation target object so as to approach a focus area in a virtual space displayed in the partial area. The movement target position determination unit determines a movement target position, based on a position in the virtual space, of the partial area and the size of the partial area. The movement manner determination unit determines a movement manner in the case of moving the virtual camera and/or the operation target object toward the movement target position, based on the period of time needed for the designation operation.
