ABSTRACT:
When a user instructs photographing by operating an operating unit, an image captured by an image sensor is stored as a photographed image in a memory. When a mode for performing color fading correction is set, the CPU instructs an image processing device to extract, from the photographed image, an area which is supposed to bring about color fading. The image processing device generates a binary image by detecting edges of the area.
