The controller of a digital camera executes copying of image data between memory cards loaded in the digital camera. The controller stores target medium information in a memory. The target medium information indicates, among the loaded memory cards, a memory card in which image data is recorded last or a memory card from which image data is read last. Based on the target medium information, the controller sets a copy direction. The copy direction indicates, among the loaded memory cards, a copy source memory card and a copy destination memory card.

A reception unit receives an eye direction input that is an input based on an eye tracking process, and a control unit controls movement of a selected position based on an operation on an operation member. The control unit performs control such that, in a first state in which the selected position is not designated based on the eye direction input, the selected position is moved, in response to the operation member being operated by a predetermined operation amount, by a first amount from a position set before the operation member is operated, and that, in a second state in which the selected position is designated based on the eye direction input, the selected position is moved, in response to the operation member being operated by the predetermined operation amount, by a second amount smaller than the first amount from a position based on the eye direction input.

This application provides a photographing method and an electronic device, and relates to the field of terminal technologies, to ensure stabilization performance existing during photographing in a zoom scenario, and improve definition of a photographing image. The method includes: obtaining a first photographing image through a first camera; determining a first crop_ratio of the first photographing image based on a first zoom ratio of the first photographing image; cropping the first photographing image based on the first crop_ratio; obtaining a second photographing image through the first camera in response to a first zoom operation; and cropping the second photographing image based on the second crop_ratio; wherein the second crop_ratio is greater than the first crop_ratio, and a stabilization angle of the second photographing image is a product of the FOV of the first camera and the second crop_ratio.

Provided is a more useful method as a display method of a video in which a part of a captured video is cut out and the cut-out video can be switched.

A display method of displaying a video captured by an imaging apparatus includes a setting step of automatically setting a plurality of set regions or a candidate for the set region in a reference region which is an imaging region of a reference video, a selection step of selecting a recording region, which is a region of a record video to be recorded, from among the plurality of set regions, and a switching step of reselecting the recording region from among the plurality of set regions to switch the recording region after the selection step is performed.

In a display method of a video in which a part of a captured video is cut out and the cut-out video is switched, the convenience for a user is improved.

A display method of displaying a video captured by an imaging apparatus includes a setting step of setting a plurality of set regions in a reference region which is an imaging region of a reference video, a selection step of selecting a recording region, which is a region of a record video to be recorded, from among the plurality of set regions, a switching step of reselecting the recording region from among the plurality of set regions to switch the recording region after the selection step is performed, and a display step of displaying the record video, the reference video, and a flag indicating a position of each of the plurality of set regions in the reference video.

An imaging device includes a lens module configured to receive an optical signal, an image sensor configured to generate image data based on the received optical signal, a tilting module configured to adjust a position of the image sensor, and a processor configured to control the tilting module based on the image data. The processor is further configured to recognize a target object from the image data and control the tilting module in response to comparing a location of the target object with reference location information including object location information.

The display of information associated with a particular position of a picked-up image is enabled. Image data is transmitted to external equipment. Instruction information regarding the image data is received from the external equipment. A display-use image reflecting the instruction information is generated on the basis of the instruction information. For example, the display-use image is generated by displaying details of the instruction information on an image corresponding to the image data. As another example, position information is added to the instruction information. The display-use image is then generated by displaying the details of the instruction information in an image position indicated by the position information.

One embodiment of an apparatus includes a reference position receiving unit configured to receive intermediate or end panorama reference position information input by a user, and a control unit configured to control an imaging device to begin generating a plurality of images to be used to generate a panoramic image based on the intermediate or end panorama reference position information input by the user after the reference position receiving unit receives the intermediate or end panorama reference position information.

A method for an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) includes: identifying a target object in a photographed image to track the target object; determining, based on a location of the target object in the photographed image, a location of the UAV, and an altitude of a gimbal of the UAV, a location of the target object to continuously record the location of the target object; and in response to a disappearance of the target object in the photographed image, controlling, according to the recorded location of the target object prior to the disappearance of the target object, the altitude of the gimbal such that a photographing device carried by the UAV through the gimbal continues to photograph in a direction from the photographing device to the location of target object.

The described technology is a technique related to a method for controlling a mobile device cradle and combining images. The method for controlling a mobile device cradle performed in an application of a user device linked with the mobile device cradle, comprises: pairing the mobile device cradle with the user device; starting capturing an image based on an input of a user; extracting a subject from a captured image; calculating a moving speed and a moving direction of the subject extracted; and calculating a rotation speed and a rotation direction of a motor included in the mobile device cradle based on the calculated moving speed and moving direction, and controlling the motor based on the calculated rotation speed and rotation direction.
