Abstract
An image processing apparatus sets a region of interest for an image frame of a moving image captured by a capturing unit, based on an operation by a user, detects a moving object region in the image frame, determines whether at least part of the detected moving object region is contained in the region of interest or not, and, in a case where at least part of the detected moving object region is determined to be contained in the region of interest, performs encoding such that the entire region of interest becomes higher in image quality than an outside of the region of interest.
