To provide an image capture device capable of capturing images at an image capture speed corresponding to the movement speed tendency of the image capture device by a user.
A CPU 7 determines, when a shutter SW is fully depressed in capturing panoramic images, a shutter speed for capturing panoramic images based on an average value of the latest five camera movement speeds read out from a movement speed storage part 24. An image capture part 2 sequentially captures images with a predetermined time interval at the above shutter speed while a user operates a digital camera 1, takes in the captured images as composition images every time an image capture device reaches to a predetermined position (a composition image acquisition position), and combines the images by overlapping parts of the images with each other to generate one panoramic image. At this time, the CPU 7 calculates a camera movement speed using the captured images or the like, and renews the average value of the latest five camera movement speeds acquired when capturing panoramic images.
