Imaging device and image processing method
Abstract:
An imaging device is provided. The imaging device can maintain a constant angle of view even if a focal distance of an entire lens system changes as a focusing lens moves. The imaging device includes an image sensor, a focusing lens, a lens driver, an image generator, a magnification changing rate obtaining unit, and a size changer. The image sensor shoots a snap shot of an object, and the focusing lens performs focusing on the object. The lens driver drives the focusing lens to a plurality of focal points for the object, and the image generator generates an image on the basis of a photograph signal from the image sensor. The magnification changing rate obtaining unit obtains a magnification changing rate for each focal point such that an angle of view for each image photographed at each focal point of the focusing lens is maintained constant. The size changer changes the size of the image on the basis of the magnification changing rate.
