In the present invention, by using a light-responsive component which can be used in photographing with a sensitivity thereof set to a sensitivity different from an indicated sensitivity, sensitivity information recorded at the light-responsive component by a photographing device can be read at a photo lab, and efficient printing operations can be carried out. While carrying out photographing on a film which can be used in photographing with a sensitivity thereof set to a sensitivity different from the indicated sensitivity in a camera, sensitivity information showing a set sensitivity at a time of photographing is recorded on the film. The film is developed at a photo lab, and the sensitivity information is read by a scanner component of an inputting machine. Printing is carried out by an outputting machine in accordance with the sensitivity information, and the sensitivity information is reflected in printed results.
