Patent ID: 7683966

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 temperature detecting device which detects an ambient temperature of the light-emitting diode, a modification information storage device which stores modification information for modifying the correction information stored in the storage device, the modification information storage device storing the modification information of the correction information based on a change in an ambient temperature of the light-emitting diode, a modifying device which modifies the correction information stored in the storage device based on a detection result of the temperature detecting device and the modification information stored in the modification information storage device; and the white balance correcting device corrects white balance of the image obtained by flash shooting based on the correction information modified by the modifying device.
