In FIG. 20, the numeral 203 displayed on the display screen is displayed to confirm the order of the frame among the six frames shot one by one in six times.

When the shooting of the six frames is completed, a message indicating that the shooting has been completed is displayed (step S201). Further, a captured moving image composed of the captured six frames is checked (FIG. 9: step S5). At this time, if it is necessary to take the images up to three times, the last captured moving image can be selected and confirmed by comparing the respective captured images when the capturing in step S4 is repeated (step S202).

Further, in the case of FIG. 16 (c), as described above, a series of motions is counted down, for example, three times (every time, three seconds before, two seconds before, and one second before each time a series of imaging is performed). ) Repeatedly, during this time, the operator can practice the pose of the movement in preparation for the actual shooting.

Therefore, in the actual shooting, the operator, for example,
With respect to the frame images shown in FIGS. 11 and 12, it is possible to take a picture in synchronization with the movement of the boxing glove as if the user's own face was actually struck by the boxing glove.

In the description of the above-described embodiment, in synthesizing a preselected frame image with a photographed image of a person such as an operator, the photographed person is photographed with the background wall of the person being blue or the like. By post-synthesis, it is also possible to apply chroma key synthesis.

Further, by providing an insertion terminal of a film memory such as a digital camera at a position (not shown) of the main body device 1, digital data of an image stored in the film memory can be used instead of an image captured by the camera 7. 3 can be input to the output position of the A / D conversion circuit.
