Summary:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To magnify a desired and specified image without accompanying the complicated operation of the operator on an opposite side watching an image and with a constitution for which the device is small-sized and the cost is reduced, as to the image input device which is used for a video conference equipment, etc., and fetches the images of an object. SOLUTION: As to an image input device 10 connected with the communication control part, etc., of the personal computer, etc., connected with a communication line, an image dividing part 13 divides the data of the image pickup image from a camera part 12 for every previously fixed area, an image specifying part 14 recognizes specified images such as the face and the whole of a person, etc., of an object 11 from the divided images and an image magnifying part 15 automatically magnifies the specified images and outputs the images. Therefore, in relation to the camera part 12, complicated constitutions of a unversal head and the control circuit, etc., is eliminated, the device is miniaturized and the cost is reduced, complicated operations such as the detailed designation of a magnified portion by an operator is eliminated and operability is improved.
