Imaging apparatus
First Claim
1. An imaging apparatus, comprising:
- a shooting optical system;
an image sensor;
an image data producer which produces image data from an image of a photographic subject formed on the image sensor via the shooting optical system;
an imaging controller which repeatedly outputs one picture unit of image data produced in a predetermined shooting time duration by the image data producer;
an image data recorder which records the image data outputted by the imaging controller;
a position detector which detects a change in position of the imaging apparatus and calculates an amount of displacement of the imaging apparatus from a position at a time point of the imaging apparatus taken as a reference based on the detected change in position;
a position recorder which records the amount of displacement calculated by the position detector and time data related to the amount of displacement;
a display section which displays a relationship between a shooting time of each image data of the image data recorder and the amount of displacement recorded by the position recorder, during exposure or at the end of exposure; and
an adding processor which adds arbitrary image data of the image data recorder and produces an image.

Abstract
An imaging apparatus having a shooting optical system and an image sensor includes an image data producer producing image data; an imaging controller repeatedly outputting one picture unit of image data produced in a predetermined shooting time duration by the image data producer; an image data recorder recording the outputted image data; a position detector detecting a change in position of the imaging apparatus and calculating an amount of displacement of the imaging apparatus from a position at a time point of the imaging apparatus taken as a reference based on the detected change in position; a position recorder recording the amount of displacement and time data related to the amount of displacement; a display section displaying a relationship between a shooting time of each image data of the image data recorder and the amount of displacement recorded by the position recorder, during exposure or at the end of exposure; and an adding processor adding arbitrary image data of the image data recorder and producing an image.

16. A computer program embodied on a non-transitory computer readable medium for use in an imaging apparatus having a shooting optical system and an image sensor, and for performing:
-
a step of an image data production which produces image data from an image of a photographic subject formed on the image sensor via the shooting optical system; a step of an imaging control which repeatedly outputs one picture unit of image data formed in a predetermined shooting time duration by the step of the image data production; a step of an image data recording which records the image data outputted by the step of the imaging control; a step of a position detection which detects a change in position of the imaging apparatus and calculates an amount of displacement of the imaging apparatus from a position at a time point of the imaging apparatus taken as a reference based on the detected change in position; a step of a position recording which records the amount of displacement calculated by the step of the position detection and time data related to the amount of displacement; a step of a display which displays a relationship between a shooting time of each image data of the step of the image data recording and the amount of displacement recorded by the step of the position recording, during exposure or at the end of exposure; and a step of an adding processing which adds arbitrary image data of the step of the image data recording and produces an image.
