Abstract

A set magnification of a magnified view during imaging standby and a set magnification of a magnified view in an AF-plus-MF mode are compared to determine whether the magnification of the magnified view during imaging standby is higher than the magnification of the magnified view in the AF-plus-MF mode. As a result of the determination, if the magnification of the magnified view during imaging standby is lower than or equal to the magnification of the magnified view in the AF-plus-MF mode, a live-view image is displayed at a magnification equal to the magnification set for the AF-plus-MF mode. If the magnification of the magnified view during imaging standby is higher than the magnification of the magnified view in the AF-plus-MF mode, the live-view image is displayed at a magnification equal to the magnification at which the live-view image has been displayed during imaging standby.
