In a portable electronic apparatus, a memory is provided to store a plurality of groups of messages. Each group of messages includes messages having the same meaning, which are expressed in different languages such as Japanese, English, and French. A user designates a main language corresponding to a mother tongue of the user and a sub-language corresponding to a language used in a travel destination area. When a travel mode is set, for instance, a photograph request button is depressed and a photograph requesting message is, for example, displayed in the main language and in the sub-language on a display screen simultaneously. As a result, a user who is very weak in English can show the request messages to a third party to easily request the third party to the user, while at the same time the user can confirm the contents of the request messages.

When it is determined that a shutter button has been depressed, it is determined if a moving image photographing mode is set. When a still image photographing mode is set, a still image photographing operation is performed. It is determined if a user sets a recording medium for recording a still image. When the recording medium has been set by the user, the still image data is transferred and recorded in the set recording medium. When it is determined that the moving image photographing mode has been set, a moving image photographing operation begins. When the shutter button is depressed again, the moving image photographing operation finishes. It is determined if the recording medium is set by the user for recording the moving image data. When the recording medium has been set, the moving image data is transferred and recorded in the recording medium.

An imaging device comprises an organic EL monitor for displaying an image from an image pick-up device. A controller sets such initial values of at least one of a diaphragm amount, an exposure time, and a gain to values for causing control that the luminance level is increased toward a proper level when a power is turned on. Displaying of a through-image of only white is prevented.

Imaging device equipped with automatic exposure control function

When an imaging device records a moving picture captured as a moving picture file, a representative picture that indicates the content of the moving picture is created and embedded in the moving picture file. If no still picture is captured simultaneously during the moving picture imaging, a frame picture at the beginning of moving picture frames is used as a representative picture. When a still picture is captured simultaneously during the moving picture imaging, the still picture is used as a representative picture of the moving picture. When reproducing recorded pictures, representative pictures of still pictures and representative pictures of moving pictures may be displayed at once on a selection screen that is displayed for image selection purposes. Among the displayed representative pictures, a representative picture of a moving picture during which a still picture was simultaneously captured represents an image of a scene for which the user's interest is higher than other scenes during the moving picture imaging, and is identical to the subsequent representative image of the still picture that was captured simultaneously during the moving picture imaging.

Imaging device with function to image still picture during moving picture imaging

A still image is photographed by a still image photographing operation performed during a moving-image photographing operation and a moving image is photographed during the moving-image photographing operation. The still image is recorded together with link information indicating the moving image to be linked with and the moving image is recorded together with link information indicating the still image to be linked with. Further, a timing information is recorded for indicating a photographing time when the still-image photographing operation is performed during the moving-image photographing operation. In an operation for reproducing the moving image, when a still image is prepared to be linked with the moving image, a still image mark Mis displayed during a period from five seconds before to five seconds after the photographing timing. Upon manipulation during such period, the still image is displayed. In an operation for reproducing the still image, when a moving image to be linked with the still image is available, a moving image mark Mis displayed. Upon manipulation, the moving image is reproduced from a position of the moving image corresponding to the photographing time.

In an electronic camera apparatus, a memory is provided. This memory is used to store a plurality of messages having the same meanings, which are expressed in different languages such as Japanese, English, and French. A user is previously required to designate a main language corresponding to a mother tongue of this user, and also, to designate a sub-language corresponding to a language which is used in a travel destination area. These main language and sub-language are previously stored in the memory. When a travel mode is set, for instance, a photograph request button is depressed, both a photograph requesting message written in the main language and another photograph requesting message written in the sub-language are displayed on a display screen at the same time. As a result, since such a user who is very weak in English shows the request messages to a third party, this user can simply request the third party to photograph a picture where the own user appears. At the same time this user can confirm the contents of the request messages.

Photographing apparatus capable of multilingual display

Anyone using a camera device can set proper shooting conditions according to shooting result while imaging the shooting result. A plurality of sample images and shooting condition data such as shutter speed of each sample image or diaphragm value are stored in a data file of an image server. A personal computer browses images that the image server has, and download a required image (during downloading, the image server adds shooting condition data to the required image data, and generates a sample transmission image. The personal computer stores the received sample image, transmits the image to the user's camera, and records it.). The camera sets the same shooting conditions as those during shooting of the sample image based on the shooting condition data added to the sample image when predetermined key operation is made while the sample image is displayed.
