Abstract

An apparatus including an image sensor configured to capture an image and optics, wherein the image sensor and optics align along an optical axis; optical image stabilization circuitry configured to determine and apply a target optical adjustment to compensate during capture of an image, for movement of the optical axis as a consequence of detected movement of the apparatus; post-capture image stabilization circuitry configured to process the captured image using a residual optical adjustment to obtain a compensated captured image, wherein the residual optical adjustment depends upon a difference between a measured optical adjustment, achieved during capture of the image, and the determined target optical adjustment.
