Abstract

See full text

An imaging apparatus is provided that includes an image sensor, a composite image processor, a position detector, and a determiner. The image sensor captures an object image through a lens system. The composite image processor merges together a plurality of images captured by the image sensor to produce a composite image. The position detector obtains information related to the position of the apparatus. The determiner evaluates the availability of the composite image. The availability of the composite image is determined with reference to the variation between the position of the apparatus at the beginning of a first exposure and at the beginning of subsequent exposures that are carried out to capture the plurality of images. The positional variation is obtained from this information.
