Abstract
A photographing apparatus is provided, including a photographing device comprising imaging circuitry configured to generate an image signal by photoelectric conversion of incident light, a processor comprising processing circuitry configured to determine a sampling interval of time lapse photographing over time based on a reference value acquired in real time while the time lapse photographing is performed, to sample a plurality of input frames generated from the image signal at the sampling interval while the time lapse photographing is performed, to stabilize a plurality of frames selected by sampling the plurality of input frames using a window determined based on the sampling interval, and to compress the plurality of selected frames at an output frame rate to generate a time lapse image file, and a storage configured to store the time lapse image file.
