Abstract
An image processing unit includes a second-taken image generation unit which performs a blurring process on a first taken image including a plurality of small areas so as to generate a second taken image, a focus degree deriving unit which derives a focus degree of each small area, and a combination process unit which combines each small area of the first taken image with each second small area of the second taken image corresponding to each small area of the first taken image. The combination process unit sets a mixing ratio of the second taken image in the combination to a larger value as a focus degree of each small area derived by the focus degree deriving unit is smaller. The second-taken image generation unit includes a face area detection unit which detects a face image area from the first taken image, and a blurring process unit which performs the blurring process on the first taken image on the basis of the detected face image area so as to generate the second taken image.
