A main object determination apparatus includes an image acquisition unit configured to acquire images captured at different timings, a selection unit configured to select main object candidate(s) from objects in the images, a determination unit configured to determine whether the main object candidate(s) each selected at the respective different timings are the same, and an input unit configured to receive an operation. In a case where the determination unit determines that the main object candidate(s) selected by the selection unit in an image of interest and one or more images captured within a predetermined time before the image of interest is captured are the same, the determination unit determines the main object candidate(s) to be a main object. In a case where the input unit receives an instruction to specify a new main object, the determination unit switches the main object according to the instruction.

Main object determination apparatus, imaging apparatus, and control method for controlling main object determination apparatus

There is provided a main subject determining apparatus. A subject detecting unit detects a plurality of subjects from a first image. An obtaining unit obtains posture information of each of the plurality of subjects. For each of the plurality of subjects, a calculating unit calculates, on the basis of the posture information of the subject, a reliability corresponding to a likelihood that the subject is a main subject in the first image. A determining unit determines the main subject of the first image from among the plurality of subjects on the basis of the plurality of reliabilities calculated for the plurality of subjects.

Main subject determining apparatus, image capturing apparatus, main subject determining method, and storage medium

An imaging device acquires an input image using a lens unit and an imaging element and detects a subject. The imaging device calculates a reliability of detection of a subject and compares the reliability with a threshold value. When the reliability of detection of a subject is less than the threshold value, the imaging device performs a defocus calculating process and a background area determining process. The imaging device performs a low-pass filtering process on the determined background area, decreases a high-frequency component in the background area, and then detects a subject again.

Image processing device, imaging device, image processing method, and recording medium
