A nontransitory computerreadable recording medium having embodied thereon computer program code for executing a method of controlling a photographing apparatus when being read and performed the method comprising setting a first exposure time according to a users input S602 determining a number of times photographing is to be performed according to an illuminance and the first exposure time S604 continuously capturing a plurality of still images for the number of times photographing is determined to be performed S606 and generating a resultant image corresponding to the first exposure time by combining the captured plurality of still images S608.

According to the first embodiment described above one still image is obtained by accumulating N photographic results thereby performing long exposure.Therefore the various types of noise components can be compressed toso that a high SN ratio can be obtained.Furthermore the dark current component can be removed at the time of accumulation so that the dynamic range of the recorded image can be widened.Since each of the divided lightreceiving time intervals is very short e.g.30 ms the exposure time can be precisely controlled.The elimination of the dark current component allows for effective utilization of the dynamic range of the pixel memory so that the pixel memory need only have a small capacity.Furthermore the outputs from the solidstate image pickup device are written into the pixel memory without performing any video processing so that the pixel memory can have a capacity smaller than that of the conventional frame memory.When the updated accumulation images are continuously monitored the gradually improving image quality can be visually checked.Theimage recording apparatus of the first embodiment can be used in a bright location as well as in a dark location by reducing the aperture to obtain an image having a deep depth of field.Furthermore when a stroboscopic lamp is lit in synchronism with the read rate of the signals from the solidstate image pickup device the image recording apparatus can be used to photograph a remote object in a completely dark location.It is to be noted here that the changes in the sensitivity of the solidstate image pickup device and dark current with respect to the temperature can be automatically compensated.

In more detail the third side portion 330 in the first mold 300 includes an upper surface 3301 a sloping surface 3302 inclined downwardly from the upper surface 3301 and a side wall 3303.Since the light source 210 is received in the third side portion 330 it is not necessary to separately provide a reflection plane in an area where the light source 210 is received.Thus a vertical plane 3307 is disposed in the area where the light source 210 is received.The sloping surface 3302 extends upwardly from the vertical plane 3307.In addition the sloping surface 3302 is vertical to the long axis of the light source 210 which means that an amount of light directly incident from the light source 210 is small.Thus a downward inclination angle 2 of the sloping portion 3302 does not need to be gentle unlike in the first side portion 310.Meanwhile the greater the downward inclination angle 2 of the sloping portion 3302 with respect to the bottom chassis 250 the narrower the distance between the side wall of the bottom chassis 250 and the vertical plane 3307.This is advantageous in acquiring an exposure area ofthe light source 210 Therefore the sloping portion 3302 is preferably inclined with respect to the bottom chassis 250 at a relatively large downward inclination angle 2 within a range in which reflection efficiency is not unduly declined for example in a range of about 60 degrees to about 80 degrees.
