Abstract
In an initial stage where an image obtained by image sensing is displayed, image data in a resolution depending on an image display area of display unit is displayed, thereby a high response can be maintained with respect to a request to display a next image or the like. Further, if a request with an enlargement ratio higher than that in the initial stage has been made, a display image is generated based on image data in a high resolution, thereby a user's request for enlarged display or the like can be fulfilled. When an image (JPEG file) stored in a recording medium is to be displayed, low resolution image data in 640×480 pixel size equivalent to the resolution of the display unit and high resolution image data in an original high resolution indicated with the image file are generated. In the initial stage, the low resolution image data is displayed. If an enlargement request has been made, partial image data cut out from the high resolution image data is resized and is displayed.
