Abstract
An electronic camera includes an imager. An imager outputs an electronic image corresponding to an optical image captured on an imaging surface. A first generator generates a first notification forward of the imaging surface. A searcher searches for one or at least two face images each having a size exceeding a reference from the electronic image outputted from the imager. A controller controls a generation manner of the first generator with reference to an attribute of each of one or at least two face images detected by the detector.
