Abstract
When the computed velocity of barycenter of image data, acquired based on initial values of image capturing parameters, is greater than a specified value, an image capturing timing is set quicker than an initial value and a resolution of image data to be captured is reduced. When the velocity of barycenter is smaller than the specified value, the resolution of image data to be captured is set higher than an initial value and the image capturing timing is set slower than the initial value.
