Patent ID: 7505067

Claim:
A digital camera, comprising: a camera-shake compensation mechanism configured to compensate for a camera-shake by adjusting a relative relation between a position of an optical axis of a photographing optical system and a center of image of a imaging device; and a luminance compensation processor configured to compensate for luminance information of pixels of said imaging device, which are outside an image circle of said photographing optical system during a camera-shake compensation operation performed by said camera-shake compensation mechanism, the luminance compensation processor comprising a detecting processor configured to count a number of times each of said pixels is determined as being outside the image circle in said camera-shake compensation operation that is repeated at predetermined periods by said camera-shake compensation mechanism during an electric-charge accumulating period of said imaging device, and comprising a luminance information amplifier configured to amplify the luminance information of said pixels based on factors that are obtained for each of said pixels in accordance with the number of times each of said pixels is determined as being outside the image circle, the number of times being counted by said detecting processor.
