To obtain a sharp follow shot image, when performing a follow shot, while tracking a moving object.
An image area including a subject image as a photographing target image when performing the follow shot is set as a photographing target image existing area, based on a frame image, the subject image existing in the photographing target image existing area is considered as a tracking target image, to set a comparison target image area corresponding to the photographing target image existing area with respect to the frame image subsequent in time series, and the feature amount of the image of the photographing target image existing area is compared with the feature amount of the image of the comparison target image area, to determine whether or not a comparison target is a tracking target image existing area where an increase area includes the tracking target image and obtain the tracking target image existing areas before and after in time series. A difference between the coordinate position of the tracking target image existing area at the last time and the coordinate position of the tracking target image existing area at this time is divided based on the obtaining time difference of the frame image, to measure the moving speed of the tracking target image and display a speed display mark corresponding to the moving speed on a monitor screen G.
