Imaging apparatus and portable device and portable telephone using same
View Patent ↗An imaging apparatus includes an imaging part that images a subject to generate image data, an image storage part that temporarily stores original image data that was imaged by the imaging part, an image data size reducing part that forms image data for display by reducing the size of image data stored in the image storage part, and an image display part that displays image data for display that was formed by the image data size reducing part; the imaging apparatus further comprising a camera shake state detection part that detects a camera shake occurrence state of the imaging part, a camera shake decision part that decides whether or not camera shake occurred for image data for display that was reduced by the image data size reducing part based on a camera shake state that was detected by the camera shake state detection part, and a camera shake correction part that, when a result decided by the camera shake decision part is that a camera shake occurrence state exists, subjects the image data for display to camera shake correction and displays corrected image data for display on the image display part.
1. An imaging apparatus comprising an imaging part that images a subject to generate image data, an image storage part that temporarily stores original image data that was imaged by the imaging part, an image data size reducing part that forms image data for display by reducing the size of image data stored in the image storage part, and an image display part that displays image data for display that was formed by the image data size reducing part;
the imaging apparatus further comprising an angular velocity detection part that detects an angular velocity of the imaging part, a camera shake decision part that decides whether or not camera shake occurred for image data that was imaged on the basis of an angular velocity that was detected by the angular velocity detection part, a first camera shake correction part that, when a result decided by the camera shake decision part is that a camera shake occurrence state exists, subjects image data for display that was formed by the image data size reducing part to camera shake correction and displays the resulting data on the image display part, and a second camera shake correction part that, while image data for display is displayed on the image display part by the first camera shake correction part, subjects the original image data to camera shake correction to form corrected image data.
2. The imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the angular velocity detection part comprises a gyro sensor.
3. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the gyro sensor is composed by a fixed substrate comprising a quadrate thin crystal plate, a pair of oscillatory arms for excitation that are disposed in parallel with one of the opposing sides of the fixed substrate through supporting parts, and oscillatory arms for detection that are provided in a connected row arrangement with the other opposing sides of the fixed substrate.
4. The imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when image data for display is subjected to camera shake correction and displayed on the image display part, the first camera shake correction part displays a camera shake correction mark indicating that camera shake correction was performed together with corrected image data for display.
5. The imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when camera shake correction of the original image data is finished, the second camera shake correction part supplies corrected image data that was formed to the image data size reducing part.
6. The imaging apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, when camera shake correction of the original image data is finished, the second camera shake correction part displays on the image display part a selection display to select whether or not to display corrected image data that was formed.
7. A portable device comprising the imaging apparatus according to claim 1 .
8. A portable telephone comprising the imaging apparatus according to claim 1 .
