摘要

PPROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To make it possible to produce continuous shooting images and a multi-motion image such that a user can precisely understand the transitions of movement of a subject by a single photographing, and to facilitate the management. PSOLUTION: A main image and a differential image are read out (step S121), and image data of the main image and image data of the differential image are compressed to generate main image data and differential image data (step S122). Furthermore, it is determined whether or not a compression process of image data of a predetermined number of continuous shots held in RAM in step S104 is finished (step S123). Until the compression process of the image data of the predetermined number of continuous shots is finished, processes in steps S121 and S122 are repeated. The main image data and a plurality of differential image data generated thereby are recorded in one EXIF file. PCOPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
