Abstract
An image pickup device includes a camera, a display, and a touch panel detects a user operation including a flick operation in first and second directions. The image pickup device has first, second and third imaging modes, in which the display displays a video image being obtained by the camera. After determining that the user operation is the flick operation, switching to the second imaging mode occurs by a first flick operation in the first direction in the first imaging mode. Switching to the first imaging mode occurs by a second flick operation in the second direction in the second imaging mode. Switching to the third imaging mode occurs by a third flick operation in the second direction in the first imaging mode. Switching to the first imaging mode occurs by a fourth flick operation in the first direction in the third imaging mode.
