Image pick-up apparatus and image restoration method
First Claim
1. An image pick-up apparatus comprising:
- an optical system which forms a subject image;
an image pick-up unit which obtains image data from the subject image formed by the optical system;
a monitor which displays the image data obtained from the image pick-up unit;
a sequence controller which controls through image display in which the image data is displayed in the monitor while updating the image data obtained by continuously operating the image pick-up unit, and still image pick-up in which the image data obtained by operating the image pick-up unit only once is recorded in an applied recording medium;
a vibration detecting unit which detects a vibration of the image pick-up apparatus;
a vibration detecting signal storage unit which stores a vibration detecting signal of a time series output from the vibration detecting unit during an exposure of the image pick-up unit at the time of still image pick-up; and
a vibration correcting controller which controls a first vibration correction which restores the image data deteriorated by the vibration based on the vibration detecting signal of the time series stored in the vibration detecting signal storage unit at the time of the still image pick-up and a second vibration correction which corrects the image data influenced by the vibration at the time of the through image display and which is different from the first vibration correction, and which sets the second vibration correction to be operative in conjunction with the first vibration correction, when the first vibration correction is set to be operative and which sets the second vibration correction to be inoperative in conjunction with the first vibration correction, when the first vibration correction is set to be inoperative.

Abstract
An image pick-up apparatus includes an optical system which forms a subject image. An image pick-up unit obtains image data from the subject image. A monitor displays the image data. A vibration detecting unit detects a vibration at a still image pick-up time. A first vibration correction restores the image data deteriorated by the vibration based on the vibration detecting signal of the time series at the still image pick-up time. A second vibration correction restores the image data deteriorated by the vibration at a through image display time. A vibration correcting controller sets the second vibration correction to be operative in conjunction with the first vibration correction, when the first vibration correction is set to be operative, and sets the second vibration correction to be inoperative in conjunction with the first vibration correction, when the first vibration correction is set to be inoperative.
