Abstract
At the time of switching an image to be displayed from a first image to a second image with different number of recording pixels with the display scale fixed, display is controlled such that of a partial range displayed in a display region of the image, a relative position of a point farthest from the center of the first image, as to the first image, and of a partial range displayed in a display region of the second image, the relative position of a point corresponding to the farthest point in the first image, as to the second image, are equal. Corresponding ranges between images before and after switching therebetween can be displayed with the display scale fixed, such that the probability of the displayed region extending outside of the entire image is reduced and comparison of images is facilitated.
