Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit, a first image processor, and a second image processor. The imaging unit sequentially acquires image frames whose photography conditions have been changed. The first image processor generates moving image data by performing image processing to maintain continuity between the image frames obtained by changing the photography conditions. The second image processor composes the image frames whose photography conditions have been changed, to generate condition-changed still image data.
