Abstract:
An imaging device includes: an area setting unit which sets a first area and a second area other than the first area on the captured image acquired by an imaging unit; a main subject setting unit which sets a main subject based on the captured image acquired by the imaging unit or another image; a subject tracking unit which periodically detects the position of the main subject on the captured image acquired by the imaging unit; a variable power unit which zooms on a zoom-up side or a wide angle side; and a control unit which directs the variable power unit to zoom on a wide angle side when a zoom state of the variable power unit is on a zoom-up side and the main subject exists in the second area, wherein the variable power unit zooms according to the direction of the control unit.

Claim (Index 5):
An imaging method used by a computer, comprising:\n setting a first area and a second area other than the first area in a captured image by shooting and acquiring a subject; setting a main subject based on the captured image acquired by shooting a subject or another image; periodically detecting a position of the main subject on the captured image acquired by shooting the subject; and zooming on a wide angle side when a zoom state is on a zoom-up side and the main subject exists in the second area.
