Abstract:
An imaging apparatus includes: an imaging unit configured to continuously capture images to sequentially generate image data; a combining unit configured to combine a plurality of sets of the image data generated by the imaging unit to generate composite image data; a display unit configured to display a composite image corresponding to the composite image data generated by the combining unit; an operating unit configured to receive an operation for the image data to be left in the composite image selected from among a plurality of sets of the image data combined into the composite image displayed by the display unit; and a control unit configured to cause the combining unit to combine at least two sets of the image data selected in accordance with the operation of the operating unit to generate a new set of the composite image data.

Claim (Index 7):
The imaging apparatus according to  claim 2 , further comprising a second determination unit configured to determine whether an imaging area of the imaging unit changes, based on the image data being temporally successive,\n wherein the control unit causes the combining unit to combine an imaging area displaying the last image with an imaging area displaying the composite image, reflecting a positional relationship between the imaging areas, to update the composite image data, when the second determination unit determines that an imaging area of the imaging unit changes.
