A digital zoom rate of two-dimensional images zoomed by a digital zoom unit is obtained. When the obtained digital zoom rate is larger than 100%, at least one of the digitally zoomed two-dimensional images is modified based on an enlarged amount of parallax to provide an amount of parallax between the digitally zoomed two-dimensional images equal to the enlarged amount of parallax. The enlarged amount of parallax is obtained by enlarging, at a moderated digital zoom rate, an amount of parallax between the two-dimensional images before being digitally zoomed, and the moderated digital zoom rate is obtained by moderating the digital zoom rate at a moderation rate, where the moderation rate increases as the zoom rate increases. Then, a display unit is caused to carry out three-dimensional display based on the modified two-dimensional images.

In a digital camera in which image data produced through a photographing operation is compressed to be written in a memory card, even if a shutter release button is depressed during the recording of the image data in the memory card, the photographing can be immediately achieved. While image data stored in a buffer memory is being compressed to be stored in the memory card, the depression of shutter release button is continuously monitored. If the release button is pressed, the recording operation in the memory card is interrupted to conduct the photographing. After the photographing is finished, the image data for which the recording is interrupted is compressed to be entirely written in the memory card beginning at the start point thereof.
