Image-capturing apparatus and image-capturing control method
First Claim
1. An image-capturing apparatus comprising:
- image-capturing means for capturing an image of a subject in order to obtain captured image data;
storage processing means for performing a process for storing the captured image data obtained by the image-capturing means;
operation means for performing a self-timer image-capturing operation;
motion detection means for detecting motion; and
control means for, when the self-timer image-capturing operation is performed using the operation means, controlling, on the basis of detection information obtained by the motion detection means, a shutter operation in which the captured image data obtained by the image-capturing means is stored by the storage processing means after a self-timer set time period passes.

Abstract
An image-capturing apparatus includes an image-capturing unit configured to capture an image of a subject in order to obtain captured image data; a storage processor configured to perform a process for storing the captured image data obtained by the image-capturing unit; an operation unit configured to perform a self-timer image-capturing operation; a motion detector; and a controller configured to, when the self-timer image-capturing operation is performed using the operation unit, controlling, on the basis of detection information obtained by the motion detector, a shutter operation in which the captured image data obtained by the image-capturing unit is stored by the storage processor after a self-timer set time period passes.

18. An image-capturing control method for use with an image-capturing apparatus for performing image capturing by using a self-timer function, the image-capturing control method comprising:
-
detecting motion of a subject or of the image-capturing apparatus during image capturing using the self-timer function; and controlling a shutter operation on the basis of a detection result of the detecting.
