Abstract
In an electronic blur correction device, imaging for a time-division exposure time is repeated m times (m is an integer of 2 or more), captured images are amplified by a factor of m to obtain a plurality of time-divided images, and an image for which blur is corrected is generated from the plurality of time-divided images. Here, the time-division exposure time is an exposure time that is obtained by dividing a proper exposure time by m and is shorter than a blur tolerable limit exposure time.
