Patent ID: 7683967

Claim:
A digital camera having an electronic flash device using a light-emitting diode as a flash light source, comprising: a storage device which stores correction information for correcting white balance of an image obtained by flash shooting, a white balance correcting device which corrects white balance of the image obtained by flash shooting based on the correction information stored in the storage device, a current detecting device which detects a value of current applied to the light-emitting diode, a modification information storage device which stores modification information for the correction information based on a change in a value of current applied to the light-emitting diode, the modification information storage device storing the modification information for modifying the correction information stored in the storage device, a modifying device which modifies the correction information stored in the storage device based on a detection result of the current detecting device and the modification information stored in the modification information storage device; and the white balance correcting device corrects the white balance of the image obtained by flash shooting, based on the correction information modified by the modifying device.
