Imaging apparatus, image display apparatus, imaging method, method of displaying image and method of correcting position of focusing-area frame

An imaging method, comprising:

• preparing an optical unit capable of changing a focusing position and converting an image of a subject into an electric signal;
• preparing an image processing device configured to convert the electric signal from the optical unit into imaging data and acquire reference image data before a shooting is taken;
• preparing a display device configured to display the imaging data;
• preparing a movement-detecting device connected to the image processing device and the control device and configured to detect movement information representing a variation between the imaging data and the reference image data, about each of the imaging data;
• correcting a focusing-area frame representing a focusing position of the imaging data, based on the detected movement information;
• and
• controlling the image processing device to display the corrected focusing-area frame and the imaging data together on the display device when the imaging data are reproduced.

A method of correcting a focusing-area frame, comprising:

• preparing an optical unit of forming images from a subject;
• acquiring distance information to the subject;
• detecting a movement amount between the images formed by the optical unit;
• forming a focusing-area frame for the images based on the distance information;
• displaying the images output from the optical unit and the focusing-area frame when reproducing the images;
• acquiring a reference image before shooting;
• and
• correcting the focusing-area frame by changing a displayed position of the focusing-area frame based on detected results of movement amount detected between the reference image and each of the images.
