CAMERA AND METHOD
First Claim
1. A camera which obtains a synthesized image whose exposure has been corrected by synthesizing a plurality of images obtained through successive image-taking, comprising:
- a detection unit which detects, with respect to a reference image, amounts of displacement on other images;
a coordinate conversion unit which applies coordinate conversion to the other images based on the results of detection of the detection unit; and
a synthesis unit which synthesizes the other images subjected to coordinate conversion and the reference image,wherein the detection unit divides the reference image into a first region including a focused region and a second region other than the first region, and detects the amounts of displacement based on a specific point in the second region of the reference image and specific points in respective regions corresponding to the second region of the other images.

Abstract
A camera which can obtain an image without image blur is disclosed. The camera which obtains a synthesized image whose exposure has been corrected by synthesizing a plurality of images obtained through successive image-taking, comprising: a detection unit which detects, with respect to a reference image, amounts of displacement on other images; a coordinate conversion unit which applies coordinate conversion to the other images based on the results of detection of the detection unit; and a synthesis unit which synthesizes the other images subjected to coordinate conversion and the reference image.

4. A method for obtaining a synthesized image whose exposure has been corrected by synthesizing a plurality of images obtained through successive image-taking, comprising:
-
a detection step in which, with respect to a reference image, amounts of displacement on other images are detected; a coordinate conversion step in which coordinate conversion is carried out for the other images based on the results of detection of the detection step; and a synthesis step in which the other images subjected to coordinate conversion in the coordinate conversion step and the reference image are synthesized, wherein, in the detection step, the reference image is divided into a first region including a focused region and a second region other than the first region, and the amounts of displacement are detected based on a specific point in the second region of the reference image and specific points in respective regions corresponding to the second region of the other images. - View Dependent Claims (5, 6)
