PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To eliminate camera shake due to a switch operation when taking a plurality of types of magnified images at a predetermined part of skin. SOLUTION: A skin condition measuring device 1 is capable of continuously photographing a plurality of types of images on a predetermined part of skin, a temperature sensor for measuring a skin temperature, a monitoring means for monitoring a temperature measured by the temperature sensor. And an image pickup unit. In the skin condition measuring device 1, after the start of measurement of the skin temperature, the imaging unit starts the continuous shooting when the fluctuation of the temperature monitored by the monitoring means converges within a predetermined range. [Selection diagram] Fig. 6【課題】皮膚の所定部位で複数種の拡大画像を撮るにあたり、スイッチ操作による手ぶれを解消する。【解決手段】肌状態計測装置1が、皮膚温を計測する温度センサと、該温度センサで計測した温度をモニターするモニタリング手段と、皮膚の所定部位に対して複数種の画像の連写が可能な撮像部を備える。肌状態計測装置1は、皮膚温の計測開始後、モニタリング手段でモニターしている温度の変動が所定範囲に収束した場合に撮像部が前記連写を開始する。【選択図】図6
