Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit, a first image processor, and a record processor. The imaging unit sequentially acquires image data groups comprising pieces of image data different in exposure conditions to generate HDR moving image frames. The first image processor subjects the pieces of the image data belonging to each of the image data groups to first composition processing, to generate HDR moving image data comprising HDR moving image frames. The record processor is configured to record image data for still images so that the pieces of the image data belonging to each of the image data groups are subjected to second composition processing different from the first composition processing, to generate HDR still image data.
