Abstract
An image pickup device includes an electronic image pickup portion for picking up an image of a subject and generating image data, an angular velocity detecting portion for detecting an angular velocity of the electronic image pickup portion, an rotational angle detecting portion for detecting a rotational angle of the image pickup device on the basis of the angular velocity detected by the angular velocity detecting portion, a hand-waggling level judging portion for judging the level of hand-waggling on the basis of the rotational angle detected by the rotational angle detecting portion, and a hand-waggling level display portion for displaying a judgment result of the hand-waggling level judging portion.

An image pickup device comprises:
- an electronic image pickup portion for picking up an image of a subject and generating image data;
- an angular velocity detecting portion for detecting an angular velocity of the electronic image pickup portion;
- an rotational angle detecting portion for detecting a rotational angle of the image pickup device on the basis of the angular velocity detected by the angular velocity detecting portion;
- a hand-waggling level judging portion for judging the level of hand-waggling on the basis of the rotational angle detected by the rotational angle detecting portion;
- and
- a hand-waggling level display portion for displaying a judgment result of the hand-waggling level judging portion.

- an angular velocity detecting portion for detecting an angular velocity of the electronic image pickup portion;
- an rotational angle detecting portion for detecting a rotational angle of the image pickup device on the basis of the angular velocity detected by the angular velocity detecting portion;
- a hand-waggling level judging portion for judging a hand-waggling level of three or more stages on the basis of the rotational angle detected by the rotational angle detecting portion;
- and
- an image data managing portion for determining on the basis of the judgment result of the hand-waggling level judging portion whether the image data picked up by the image pickup portion should be saved or discarded.
