Abstract
In an image sensing apparatus using a non-interlace scanning type image sensing element, image data as well as a signal indicating whether the image data is sensed in a mode which is suitable for sensing a moving image (field image sensing mode) or sensed in a mode which is suitable for sensing a still image (frame image sensing mode) are recorded in a recording medium. In reproducing the image data from the recording medium, in a case where the recorded image data is sensed in the frame image sensing mode and a moving image output is required, an interpolation filter controller controls an interpolation filter to generate and output field images interpolated between consecutive frame images on the basis of the reproduced even or odd line field image data of the two consecutive frame images, thereby obtaining a smooth moving image.
