Abstract
Provided is a wireless communication apparatus wherein when a wireless communication having high directivity is performed together with another wireless communication apparatus, the user can clearly recognize a communicatable range of the wireless communication. In this apparatus, a periphery image capturing unit () captures a periphery image through the optical system in such a manner that the line-of-sight of wireless communication for establishing a wireless communication having high directivity is coincident with the optical axis of the optical system. A preview display unit () displays, in a preview window, another wireless communication apparatus image-captured as a periphery image. A communication establishing unit () establishes the wireless communication with the other wireless communication apparatus displayed in the preview window.
