Original Abstract Submitted
An endoscope system includes an endoscope, which includes an instruction unit that issues a selection condition switching instruction and a still image storage instruction and which images a subject, and a processor. The processor acquires an endoscope image for each frame, temporarily stores the endoscope image selected based on a first selection condition or a second selection condition in a temporary storage area, performs image evaluation to assign an image evaluation value for each of the temporary storage images, and stores, based on the still image storage instruction, an optimal still image selected in accordance with the image evaluation value.
