The present invention relates to the recording of moving images by means
of a portable communication device, such as a videophone. The
communication device includes a main device (101), comprising a video
camera (105). Furthermore, an accessory device (102), such as a headset,
is also associated with the main device (101) and co-located with a
relevant object (103). The video camera (105) records an original image
of the relevant object (103). At least one tracking point (107a ) is
located on the accessory device (102) and at least one automatic tracking
sensor (108a-108c) responsive to the at least one tracking point is
located on the main device (101). The main device (101) further comprises
a tracking data generator, which receives signals from the automatic
tracking sensor(s) (108a-108c) and generates in response thereto tracking
data representing a target direction (104) between the main device (101)
and the accessory device (102). An image controller in the main device
(101) creates a stabilized image of the relevant object (103) based on
the target direction (104) and an original image recorded by the video
camera (105 ).
