1. An encoding system comprising: processing circuitry configured to perform encoding of image data, the encoding including a plurality of encoding sub-processes; imaging circuitry configured to capture and deliver raw image data to the processing circuitry; second circuitry, independent of the imaging circuitry, configured to deliver motion related information to the processing circuitry, the motion related information being generated at least near a time of capture by the imaging circuitry of the raw image data and being derived independently of analysis of the raw image data; and the processing circuitry is configured to modify at least one of the plurality of encoding sub-processes of the raw image data using the motion related information that was derived independently of the analysis of the raw image data, wherein the at least one of the plurality of encoding sub-processes comprises compressing the raw image data.
