According to one embodiment, a capturing apparatus includes a capturing unit configured to capture a moving image video, a storage unit configured to store the moving image video captured by the capturing unit, an operation unit configured to include a plurality of keys used to instruct playback of the moving image video stored in the storage unit, a skip playback unit configured to play back the moving image video while skipping the moving image video at predetermined time intervals every time a predetermined operation is made on the operation unit, and a playback control unit configured to switch the time intervals skipped by the skip playback unit based on the total playback time period of the moving image video.

Playback apparatus

An embodiment of a camera apparatus includes transferring a compressed playback streaming signal output from a recording medium to a map defined in a memory circuit, decoding the transferred playback streaming signal by a decoder, converting the decoded signal to a YUV signal in an image processing unit, transferring the converted signal to the map as a YUV signal, generating a magnified or reduced image from the YUV signal in the image processing unit, and storing the image on the map, overlaying a magnified or reduced image prepared on the map according to a magnified playback request, and outputting the overlaid image for seeking an output position.

Capturing apparatus

According to an embodiment of the invention, in a digital video camera using a non-tape recording medium, the user can select whether to save a moving image file in a divided form or as one file, when recording a moving image, by changing the function of a REC button. When one moving image file has been saved in a divided form, a moving image file to be reproduced is easily searched, and a moving image is quickly played from an object chapter, or from a divided sub-file.

Digital video camera and mode changing method

The present invention provides a digital camera that has an EVF, an LCD screen, a switching unit, and display-state restoring unit. The switching unit switches display to the EVF or the LCD screen in accordance with an input signal. The display-state restoring unit automatically restores the EVF and the LCD screen to states that they assume before the switching unit switches the display, when a process initiated by the input signal is completed.

Digital camera with a plurality of display screens

A microcomputer detects tracing on a touch panel, detects the traced pattern and controls each unit to execute advancing/backing or deleting the image according to the detected pattern. The microcomputer also changes the display mode from standard play mode to magnify mode or thumbnail display mode.

Digital still camera and method of inputting user instructions using touch panel

There is disclosed a digital still camera in which a direction and speed of a tracing operation by user's fingertips on a touch panel are judged and a dynamic image reproduction process is executed in accordance with the direction and speed. For example, fast forward/rewind reproduction of a dynamic image is executed in response to a long and fast tracing operation to the right from the left or to the left from the right.
