Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a control unit setting an exposure of an image to be captured, setting a quantity of images to be captured, and acquiring a plurality of image signals corresponding to the set quantity by controlling image capturing at the set exposure; a composing unit generating an additive composite image by additively composing the plurality of image signals; a live view image generating unit generating an image for live view; and a live view image display unit controlling a display unit to display the image for live view. The image for live view is an image displayed in real time before the control unit executes image capturing. The live view image generating unit generates simulation images corresponding to an exposure of the additive composite image as images for live view in accordance with the exposure and the quantity which are set.
