An imaging device includes an imaging element that acquires a first image based on signal charge generated during a first accumulation time, and a second image based on signal charge generated during a second accumulation time relatively longer than the first accumulation time and synchronized with the first image during a synchronization period including the first accumulation time, and a moving image file generating unit that generates a moving image file including a first moving image based on the first image, a second moving image based on the second image, and synchronization information for synchronizing the first moving image and the second moving image frame by frame.

The present disclosure relates to an information processing apparatus, an information processing method and a program, and a recording medium that can generate graphics in colors in a predetermined dynamic range from the data of graphics of colors in a plurality of dynamic ranges. A processor identifies an SDR PDS that is an information item of a color in the SDR available for the graphics, an HDR PDS that is an information item of a color in the HDR available for the graphics from a graphics stream including the SDR PDS, and the HDR PDS, and a segment_type used to identify the SDR PDS and the HDR PDS on the basis of the segment_type. A CLUT management unit generates the SDR graphics on the basis of the SDR PDS identified by the processor. The present disclosure can be applied, for example, to a reproducing device.

An imaging apparatus is configured to capture an object image, generate a RAW image, perform simple development on the RAW image during the image capturing operation, and store not only the developed image but also the RAW image in a storage medium. If the imaging apparatus displays an image during the image capturing operation and immediately after the image capturing operation, the imaging apparatus displays the image processed by the simple development. When the imaging apparatus completes processing of high-quality image development, the imaging apparatus replaces the image processed by the simple development with the image processed by the high-quality image development and displays the image processed by the high-quality image development.

Disclosed are techniques that provide a “best” picture taken within a few seconds of the moment when a capture command is received (e.g., when the “shutter” button is pressed). In some situations, several still images are automatically (that is, without the user's input) captured. These images are compared to find a “best” image that is presented to the photographer for consideration. Video is also captured automatically and analyzed to see if there is an action scene or other motion content around the time of the capture command. If the analysis reveals anything interesting, then the video clip is presented to the photographer. The video clip may be cropped to match the still-capture scene and to remove transitory parts. Higher-precision horizon detection may be provided based on motion analysis and on pixel-data analysis.

Provided is a method of controlling a digital photographing apparatus recording moving image data being input to a recording medium in a moving image photographing mode. The method includes creating a moving image file in the recording medium and storing the moving image data being input in the moving image file when a first signal is generated by a first button of the digital photographing apparatus pressed by a user, stopping storing of the moving image data being input when the first signal is generated by a second button of the digital photographing apparatus pressed by the user, continuing to store the moving image data being input in the moving image file when a second signal is generated by the second button pressed by the user, and stopping storing of the moving image data being input and completing the moving image file when the second signal is generated by the first button pressed by the user.

Synchronization of simultaneously captured media in a multi-camera system is performed using a consistent file structure within the cameras. A primary camera receives a bitmap describing the file and folder utilization of each of one or more secondary cameras. The primary camera selects a folder number and file position number that is commonly available across all cameras. The primary camera directs the secondary cameras to store subsequently simultaneously captured media content at the selected file number and folder position number. During post-processing, simultaneously-captured content is accessed based on common folder numbers and file position numbers. A post-processing system compares a timestamp associated with each content file in a group with matching folder numbers and file position numbers to identify false positive groupings.

An imaging apparatus includes an optical system, an imaging unit that captures a subject image which is input via the optical system and generates an image signal, an image processor that performs predetermined processing on the image signal generated by the imaging unit and generates image data, a display unit that displays an image represented by the image data, and a control unit that controls the image processor and the display unit. The control unit records moving image data and generates, from all or a part of a plurality of frame images composing recorded moving image data, a still image based on user's specifying of an image or an area of the image. The display unit displays one frame image among the plurality of frame images composing the recorded moving image data, as a setting image for the user to specify an image or an area of the image, and adds highlighting to an in-focus portion in the setting image.

Techniques and apparatuses for highlighting media through weighting of people or contexts are described. This document describes techniques that allow a user to quickly and easily highlight media, such as through generating a highlight reel. The techniques also enable selection of context and person weightings by which to tailor highlight reels.

A device for recording filterable content tagged to a location or object and available when a user is notified they are proximate to relevant filterable content. The filterable content preferably includes a location, a product or a service purchase fact, a coupon, an advertisement, a promotional offer, a public transportation advisement, a travel advisement, a review, a moment proximity alert, a monetary amount, a map of locations where moments were created by a specific user, a time certification, a resume, a biography, a headshot, a moment “like” notification, a riddle, a challenge, textual material, an audio file, a video file, or a multimedia file.

A control device includes a processor configured to: perform movie display control of causing a display to sequentially display images acquired in time series, and still image display control of causing the display to display any of the images as a still image; detect a first operation on a switch; determine whether a predetermined operation condition for the switch is satisfied, after the first operation has been detected; switch, when the first operation is detected while the movie display control is being executed, from the movie display control to the still image display control and causing the display to display, as a still image, an image displayed at a timing at which the first operation is detected; and cause, when the processor determines that the predetermined operation condition is satisfied, a memory to store the image displayed as a still image under the still image display control.
