Abstract
An output control method and an apparatus are provided, by which even in the case where aspect ratios of a thumbnail image and a main image are different, an image with the aspect ratio of the main image can properly be displayed. The apparatus has a TV display control part for displaying image data imaged by a digital camera on a TV, and the TV display control part compares aspect ratios of a thumbnail image and a main image in the image data, and performs control so that the thumbnail image is used as display data to be displayed on the TV when they are the same, and that the main image is used as the display data when they are different.
