ABSTRACT:
An image-capturing apparatus, a method for processing signals, a recording medium, and a program that can improve the accuracy of an autofocus function with respect to a subject at the time of fill-light projection. A microcomputer monitors a fill-light controller and determines whether or not a fill-light projection flag is ON. If it is determined that the fill-light projection flag is ON, the microcomputer performs computation of the amount of control of image-blur correction to determine the amount of control of image-blur correction, and outputs the determined amount of control of image-blur correction to a detector. The detector determines the position of a detection frame for autofocus, changes the size or number of detection frames based on information on the zoom factor, and controls the position of the detection frame, and the size or number of detection frames.
