Abstract:
1. An image sensing apparatus, comprising: an image sensing unit; a light projection unit; an image acquisition unit that acquires sensed image data from the image sensing unit before a recording instruction is input by a user; a display unit that displays the sensed image data acquired by the image acquisition unit; a detection unit that detects a red-eye region in the sensed image data acquired by the image acquisition unit during light projection by the light projection unit; a switching unit that switches to one of displaying, on the display unit, an entire image of the sensed image data and displaying an enlarged image of a partial region within the sensed image data according to the red-eye region detected by the detection unit, wherein the enlarged image to be displayed on the display unit is an image to which a red-eye correction processing for the red-eye region is not applied and the display unit displays only one enlarged image at any given time; and a correction unit, wherein, after the recording instruction is input by a user and, in response to which the image acquisition unit acquires a photographed image, the correction unit executes red-eye correction processing on the photographed image in accordance with information from the detected red-eye region.
