Title:
IMAGING APPARATUS, IMAGING METHOD, AND PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2014154990
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging apparatus, an imaging method, and a program for preventing the deterioration of image quality due to noise and the deterioration of convenience.SOLUTION: An imaging apparatus to be operated by power supply from a main power source includes: a CMOS image sensor 22 for imaging a depth of field and outputting image data; a DC/DC converter 29a to which a power source is supplied from the main power source and that converts voltage into a voltage indicated based on a control signal and outputs the voltage; and LDO regulators 29b each of which receives the output of the DC/DC converter 29a and supplies a constant voltage signal to the CMOS image sensor 22. A noise level of image data of the CMOS image sensor 22 is predicted to calculate a voltage value to be input to the LDO regulators 29b in accordance with the prediction of the noise level. Then, an output voltage is indicated to the DC/DC converter 29a.
