Imaging device moving an imaging element a predetermined amount for each exposure to acquire a plurality of images, image blur correction method, and recording medium

An imaging device that performs a first process of moving an imaging element a predetermined amount for each exposure to acquire a plurality of images and synthesizes the plurality of images to generate a high-resolution image, the imaging device comprising:

• at least one processor and a memory holding a program which makes the processor function as:
• a target value setting unit configured to set an image blur correction target value on the basis of a shake of the imaging device detected by a detection unit;
• and
• a correction unit configured to perform a second process of correcting an image blur in accordance with the image blur correction target value,
• wherein the target value setting unit fixes the image blur correction target value to a predetermined value when the first process is performed, and
• wherein the target value setting unit initializes the image blur correction target value based on the shake detected by the detection unit at an end of the first process, and adds the initialized value to the predetermined value.

An image blur correction method of an imaging device that performs a first process of moving an imaging element a predetermined amount with respect to the imaging device for each exposure to acquire a plurality of images, the method comprising:

• setting an image blur correction target value on the basis of a shake of the imaging device detected by a detection unit;
• and
• correcting for performing a second process of correcting an image blur in accordance with the image blur correction target value, wherein the second process is performed during each exposure to acquire the plurality of images,
• wherein, in the setting of the image blur correction target value, the image blur correction target value is fixed to a predetermined value when the first process is performed.

A non-transitory storage medium on which is stored a program of an imaging device that performs a first process of moving an imaging element a predetermined amount with respect to the imaging device for each exposure to acquire a plurality of images, the imaging device executing the following on the basis of the program:

• target value setting for setting an image blur correction target value on the basis of a shake of the imaging device detected by a detection unit;
• and
• correcting for controlling a correction unit in accordance with the image blur correction target value to perform a second process of correcting an image blur, wherein the second process is performed during each exposure to acquire the plurality of images,
• wherein the target value setting fixes the image blur correction target value to a predetermined value when the first process is performed.
