Abstract
A digital camera has an image sensor, a photographing processor, a driving signal controller, and a timing adjuster. The image sensor driver drives an image sensor by outputting a driving signal corresponding to a moving image. The photographing processor carries out an exposure in accordance with the operation of a release button, to record a still image. The driving signal controller outputs a control signal associated with a change of the driving signal to the image sensor driver in accordance with the recording operation and an output timing of the control signal. The image sensor driver outputs the driving signal corresponding to a still image in accordance with an update timing that synchronizes with the clock pulse signal. The timing adjuster shifts at least one of the output timing of the control signal and the update timing of the driving signal, from a synchronization timing of the clock pulse signal, in accordance with the operation.
