Abstract:
1. An image sensing apparatus having a camera shake correction function of moving an optical axis of an image sensing device, the apparatus comprising: an optical axis moving amount acquisition unit configured to acquire a moving amount of the optical axis at the time of shooting; a dust pixel determination unit configured to scan image data acquired by pre-shooting, during which the camera shake correction function is disabled, and determine a dust pixel corresponding to dust that is adhered to the image sensing device; a dust correction data generation unit configured to generate dust correction data based on information about the dust pixel that has been determined by the dust pixel determination unit; and a holding unit configured to hold the moving amount of the optical axis acquired by the optical axis moving amount acquisition unit and the dust correction data generated by the dust correction data generation unit, wherein the optical axis moving amount acquisition unit acquires a moving amount that is a difference in position between the optical axis at the time of pre-shooting and the optical axis at the time of ordinary shooting, during which the camera shake correction function is enabled, and wherein the holding unit holds the moving amount of the optical axis and image data at the time of ordinary shooting in association with each other.
