An image processing apparatus including a motion detecting unit for detecting the motion quantity of an image on the basis of plural frame images photographed by a CMOS image capturing device; a motion predicting unit for predicting a traveling speed of the image capturing apparatus when capturing an image on the basis of the motion quantity; a correction value calculating unit for calculating a correction value for correcting the motion quantity of the image so that, the larger the traveling speed is, the longer the traveling motion of the image capturing apparatus intended by a user remains; and a motion compensating unit for performing compensation that allows only the traveling motion of the image capturing apparatus intended by the user to remain in the image with the use of the correction value.
