A technique preferable for ophthalmic image taking having an image taking optical system for imaging an image on an image sensing element at different imaging magnifications is disclosed which includes an image sensing element for converting the eye-to-be-examined fundus image into digital image data; an image taking optical system for imaging the eye-to-be-examined fundus image on the image sensing element at different image magnifications; fundus illumination means for illuminating fundus at a light intensity interlocking with the imaging magnifications; and region selection means for selecting a specific region including a fundus image from the image data in accordance with the imaging magnifications. Moreover, it is characterized to lower the light intensity of the fundus illumination means by interlocking with reduction of the imaging magnifications and contract the specific region by interlocking with reduction of the imaging magnifications.
