Abstract
The image capturing apparatus instructs a user to take an image of a type not stored among types of images necessary for making an album. The image capturing apparatus of the present invention includes: a necessary image type storing section that stores types of images necessary for making an album; a captured image storing section; a captured image type judging section that judges whether a type of image stored on the captured image storing section corresponds to either of the types of necessary images stored on the necessary image type storing section; a captured image type storing section that stores an image type judged by the captured image type judging section that the type corresponds to either of the necessary image types stored on the necessary image type storing section; an image type comparing section that compares the image type stored on the necessary image type storing section and the image type already stored on the captured image type storing section to judge a type of image not stored on the captured image type storing section; and an image capturing instructing section that instructs a user to take an image of the type not stored, which is judged by the image type comparing section.
