An imaging device includes an imaging unit, a display controller, a first selector, a second selector, and a record controller. The imaging unit acquires a plurality of items of image data captured by repeatedly imaging an object. The display controller displays images based on the plurality of items of the captured image data on a display after user's imaging operation. The first selector selects first image data among the displayed images in accordance with a user's select operation. The second selector selects second image data among the items of the captured image data based on the first image data. The record controller records the first image data, movie data including the second image data, characteristic information of the first image data, and characteristic information of the movie data in a recording medium.

A mobile device includes a camera unit configured to sense an image; a display unit configured to display the image; a sensor unit configured to detect an input signal and transmit the detected input signal to a processor; a storage unit; and the processor configured to control the display unit, the camera unit, the sensor unit, wherein the processor is further configured to: provide an image capturing interface displaying the image sensed by the camera unit, display a pattern code indicator when a pattern code is recognized from the image, store the image in the storage unit in response to a first input signal, and store data linked to the pattern code in the storage unit in response to a second input signal.

An image pickup apparatus includes a specifying unit that specifies, as a transfer target, an image to be transferred to an external device from among images recorded in a recording medium, a transfer control unit that controls the specified image to be transferred to the external device, a display control unit that displays a predetermined screen for inputting an instruction for restricting deletion of the image specified as the transfer target, and a restriction unit that associates, in a case where the instruction for restricting the deletion of the image specified as the transfer target is input via the predetermined screen, information for restricting deletion with the image specified as the transfer target after inputting the instruction, and associates the information for restricting the deletion with images previously specified as the transfer target before inputting the instruction.

All image capturing apparatus includes an interval shooting section (51) that performs an interval shooting process, a lighten compositing section (54) that performs a lighten compositing process using images captured one by one by the interval shooting process, and a composite-image-in-progress displaying section (55) that, when a first operation is performed, causes a composite image in a first memory area, which is used as a compositing buffer for the lighten compositing process, to be displayed on an LCD monitor without causing the interval shooting process to be stopped.

Implementations relate to adaptive display of image capacity for an image capture device. In some implementations, a computer-implemented method to display available image capacity for an image capture device includes determining local storage capacity of local storage accessible to the image capture device and determining whether secondary storage is accessible to the image capture device over a network. The method includes determining total storage capacity based at least in part on the determining whether the secondary storage is accessible. The method determines image capture settings of the image capture device, calculates the available image capacity based on the total storage capacity and the image capture settings, and causes the available image capacity to be displayed.

An information acquisition apparatus includes: a configuration information acquisition section that acquires configuration information that indicates a configuration of a plurality of portions to be photographed; a determination section that determines a photographing state of a portion indicated in the configuration information; and a photographing guide screen creation section that creates the photographing guide screen, wherein the photographing guide screen creation section includes the acquired configuration information in the photographing guide screen, and adds, to the portion indicated in the configuration information, state information that indicates a photographing state based on the determination performed by the determination section.

An imaging processing apparatus includes a frame position determining unit configured to specify during a reproduction of developed first moving image data a frame position in the first moving image data of an image designated during the reproduction of the first moving image data by a user as an image to be extracted as a still image, a developing unit configured to read out undeveloped image data at a frame position adapted to the frame position specified by the frame position determining unit from undeveloped second moving image data corresponding to the first moving image data and develop the undeveloped image data, a still image encoding unit configured to compression encode the image data developed by the developing unit into a still image data, and a recording unit configured to record the still image data obtained by being compression encoded by the still image encoding unit onto a recording medium.

Disclosed are an image display apparatus and a method of operating the same. The method of operating the image display apparatus includes entering a camera mode, acquiring a captured image on a per lens position basis via position shift of a single lens included in a camera module according to the camera mode, storing the acquired captured image on a per lens position basis, displaying at least one of a plurality of stored captured images according to an image view mode, and displaying any one image focused on at least one area in the displayed captured image when the at least one area is selected. This method may enhance user convenience.

An image display method displays image data obtained through a photographing operation performed at an image-capturing apparatus having a photographic optical system. The method includes: (i) image-capturing in which image data are generated by photographing a subject within a photographic image plane with the image-capturing apparatus; (ii) information collection in which subject information related to the subject is collected; (iii) correlating in which the subject information is made to correlate to a position within the photographic image plane; (iv) image display in which the image data are displayed at a display screen; (v) position specification in which a position on the display screen at which the image data are displayed is specified; and (vi) information display in which the subject information made to correlate to a position within the photographic image plane corresponding to the position specified in the position specification is displayed.

A method, system and computer program product for facilitating access to a resource represented in an image at a later time. A screen capture of an image displayed on a computing device is implemented. Metadata, including the resource location, resource navigation and positional metadata, regarding the source data of the screen capture image is generated. The generated metadata is then embedded into the screen capture image. The screen capture image with the embedded metadata is then transmitted to a different user. By embedding the metadata into the screen capture image, the user receiving the screen capture image will be able to reproduce the state of the source environment when the image was captured using the embedded metadata thereby opening the resource represented in the image.
