1. An image capture device, comprising:
- motion vector detection means for detecting a motion vector of a plurality of successive images;
determination means for determining whether the motion vector detected by the motion vector detection means is of a predetermined amount or more in a fixed direction; and
warning means for issuing a warning when the determination means determines that the motion vector is of the predetermined amount or more in the fixed direction.

13. An image capture method, comprising the steps of:
-
detecting a motion of imaging means for imaging a plurality of successive images;
determining, based on the motion of the imaging means detected in the detecting step, whether or not an image capture device including the imaging means is moved in its entirety by a predetermined amount; and
issuing a warning when the imaging device is determined in the determining step as being moved by the predetermined amount.
