Motion vector detection device, method of controlling a motion vector detection device, and image capturing apparatus that change a size and a number of a template block based on a use of a detected motion vector

摘要

A motion vector detection device includes at least one processor and at least one memory that function as a detection unit configured to detect a motion vector between a plurality of images, and a control unit configured to perform setting with respect to a detection of the motion vector. The detection unit detects the motion vector by searching for an area, which has a correlation with a template block that is set in one of the plurality of images, within a search range that is set for another one of the plurality of images. The control unit changes a size and a number of the template block, based on a use of the motion vector that is detected by the detection unit.
