Abstract
An image sensing apparatus having the following functions can be operated in a more easily comprehensible manner to users. A simulation is electrically performed to generate a plurality of images according to various shutter speeds and iris values. The images generated by the simulation are displayed on a touch panel display of the image sensing apparatus. Users can select a final image by touching a desirable image out of a plurality of displayed images on the touch panel display so that a desirable shutter speed and a desirable iris value are determined. A computer program to carry out the above-mentioned functions, is stored in a memory media.
