Title:
CAMERA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2008/050471
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A camera having an imaging element; an imaging section for imaging an object; a finder for confirming the composition of the object; a detection section for detecting a relative angle between the imaging element and the finder based on the composition obtained through the finder by using an image that is obtained by imaging a predetermined reference line by the imaging section; and a recording section for recording the result of the detection by the detection section. The construction enables the composition determined through the finder and the composition in the obtained image to be matched with each other by simple adjustment. The camera may have a calculation section for calculating a correction value for correcting an image created by the imaging section, and the recording section may records the correction value calculated by the calculation section. Also, the camera may further have an image processing section for correcting, based on a correction value calculated by the calculation section, an image created by the imaging section.
