Abstract
The object is to provide an image capture device capable of carrying out good image capture in electronic viewfinder mode. When the electronic viewfinder mode is set in a single lens reflex digital camera a quick return mirror is driven so as to direct light from a photographic subject onto a CCD, and control is also carried out such that images captured by the CCD are displayed as a through image on a liquid crystal monitor at specific time intervals, with the through image display conditions being adjusted so that the image displayed as a through image is an image equivalent to an image that would be captured during main image capture with the set main image capture conditions.
