A divisional small region setting window is set and an image in the window is determined to be a person based on the number of moving body pixels of each divisional small region, and a first person candidate point is set in the window when the image is determined to be a person. A person determination process is executed based on an image feature quantity in a person determination detection frame, and a second person candidate point is set in the person determination detection frame when it is determined to be a person. A distribution state in a moving body detection frame of the person determination detection frame is analyzed, and an image in the person determination detection frame is determined to be a person based on an analysis result.
