Abstract
An image capture device for recording HDR (high dynamic range) image data obtained through image capture performs control so as to, when encoding HDR image data obtained by capturing an image with an image sensor, divide part of the HDR image data corresponding to a coding area to be encoded into a plurality of divided HDR image data, encode each of the plurality of divided HDR image data by using encoding means, and record the plurality of divided HDR image data that are encoded on a recording medium in a predetermined recording format.
Claims11
An image capture device for recording HDR (high dynamic range) image data, comprising:
- an image sensor;
- encoding means for encoding HDR image data;
- and
- recording control means for dividing HDR image data obtained by image capturing with the image sensor into a plurality of divided HDR image data, encoding each of the plurality of divided HDR image data by using the encoding means, and recording the plurality of encoded divided HDR image data and image structure information for combining the plurality of divided HDR image data into the HDR image data before being divided, in one image file of a predetermined recording format on a recording medium,
- wherein image sizes of the plurality of divided HDR image data differ depending on an image size of the HDR image data recorded in the image file.
