ABSTRACT:
A video image capture device of the present invention includes: an optical system having distortion characteristics which enlarge the center portion and compress the peripheral portions; an image sensor which performs photoelectric conversion of a subject image focused by the optical system to output as original image data; a distortion correction circuit which corrects distortion in the original image data; an instruction portion which sets the size of an extraction angle of view for the original image data before correction of distortion; and a recording device which, taking the angle of view of the original image data to be a first angle of view, stores in succession image data corresponding to the first angle of view of the original image data and, as pairs, image data corresponding to a second angle of view narrower than the first angle of view set by the instruction portion.
