Abstract
There is provided an image data compression apparatus capable of effectively suppressing an image data volume after compression processing. A bit rate value is detected according to the image data volume after the compression processing. According to the bit rate size value detected, a quantization step size value used in the compression processing is modified. According to the quantization step size value, a skip frame number is set and a frame skip of the image data before or after the compression processing is performed according to the number of frame skip frames which has been set.
