Abstract

An image processing method including specifying a first focusing position for a first frame of a plurality of frames forming a time-lapse moving image; acquiring a first parallax image and a second parallax image, which are contained in a first image file corresponding to the first frame, from a recording medium; calculating a first shift amount for a first focusing position shift to be performed on the first parallax image and the second parallax image for focusing on the first focusing position; performing the first focusing position shift with the first shift amount on the first parallax image and the second parallax image, and combining the first parallax image and the second parallax image after the first focusing position shift to generate a first refocused image; and replacing the first frame by the first refocused image to regenerate the time-lapse moving image.
