Abstract
The imaging device displays an image under imaging at present and also past images picked up before it on the display means, thus at the time of continuous imaging, even when the next imaging is started immediately after end of imaging, an image after the framing process is displayed, for example, as an image picked up just prior, so that the imaging condition, for example, whether closing of eyes is caused in the image picked up already can be checked. Therefore, the next imaging can be started without waiting for the time required for the framing process after imaging, so that the imaging can be speeded up.
