Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A digital photographing apparatus is provided that is capable of effectively distinguishing a background region and a motion region. Also provided is a method of controlling the digital photographing apparatus, and a recording medium having recorded thereon a computer program to implement the method. The digital photographing apparatus includes an imaging device generating data from light incident thereto, a first difference image data obtaining unit obtaining first difference image data regarding a first difference image, which represents a difference between a reference image and a current frame image, a second difference image data obtaining unit obtaining second difference image data regarding a second difference image, which represents a difference between the current frame image and a previous frame image, and a motion region determining unit determining a motion region in the current frame image, by using the first difference image data and the second difference image data.
