[0045]
<Operation of CPU 11>
FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the shutter sound setting processing by the CPU 11. In the shutter sound setting process shown in FIG. 8, the CPU 11 determines whether a shutter sound setting instruction has been input from a main screen (not shown) (step S1), and if no setting instruction has been input (step S1; NO), If the setting instruction is input (step S1; YES), the shutter sound setting screen is displayed on the display unit 13 (step S2), and it is determined whether the “play” button 42 is pressed (step S1). S3). When the "play" button 42 is pressed (step S3; YES), the CPU 11 reads the audio data selected in the shutter sound selection field 41 in the screen from the storage unit 15 and causes the transmission / reception unit 16 to output the audio data ( Step S4), and return to step S3.
[0046]
On the other hand, when the “play” button 42 is not pressed on the shutter sound setting screen (step S3; NO), the CPU 11 determines whether the “enter” button 43 is pressed (step S5), and “enter”. When the button 43 is pressed (step S5; YES), the sound data selected in the shutter sound selection field 41 is stored in the storage unit 15 as a shutter sound, and the main screen is displayed on the display unit 13 (step S23). Then, the shutter sound setting process ends.
[0047]
The CPU 11 determines whether or not the “download” button 44 has been pressed (step S6) if the “decision” button 43 has not been pressed on the shutter sound setting screen (step S5; NO), and if not, (step S6). NO), return to step S3, and when pressed (step S6; YES), connect to the audio data download site of the URL stored in storage unit 15 by wireless communication unit 14, and select audio data from information providing device 3. The display data for the screen is received and displayed on the display unit 13 (step S7).
[0048]
Next, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the “view” button 52 has been pressed on the audio data selection screen (step S8). If the “view” button 52 has not been pressed (step S8; NO), the process proceeds to step S11. (Step S8; YES), the wireless communication unit 14 transmits the data of the file name of the audio data selected in the audio data selection field 51 and the viewing request data to the information providing device 3 (Step S9). Next, the CPU 11 receives the reproduction-only audio data from the information providing device 3 by the wireless communication unit 14 and outputs it from the transmission / reception unit 16 (step S10), and proceeds to step S11.
[0049]
In step S11, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the "download" button 53 has been pressed on the audio data selection screen. If the "download" button 53 has not been pressed (step S11; NO), the process returns to step S8, and if it has been pressed (step S11). YES), the data of the file name of the audio data selected in the audio data selection field 51 and the download request data are transmitted to the information providing device 3 by the wireless communication unit 14 (step S12).

Next, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the “overwrite save” button 61 has been pressed on the confirmation screen (step S17), and determines that the button has been pressed (step S17; YES). The stored data of the same file name is overwritten, the file name of the received audio data is added to the list of the shutter sound selection field 41 on the shutter sound setting screen (step S18), and the process returns to step S2. On the other hand, if the “overwrite save” button 61 has not been pressed (step S17; NO), the CPU 11 determines whether or not the “save as” button 62 has been pressed (step S19). (S19; NO), the process returns to step S17, and when pressed (step S19; YES), the display unit 13 displays an alias storage screen (step S20).
[0052]
Next, the CPU 11 determines whether or not the “save” button 72 has been pressed on the alias save screen (step S21). If the “save” button 72 has not been pressed (step S21; NO), the CPU 11 continues waiting, and if pressed (step S21). YES), the received voice data is added with the file name input in the file name input field 71 of the alias storage screen and stored in the storage unit 15, and the received voice data is listed in the shutter sound selection field of the shutter sound setting screen. The data file name is added (step S22), and the process returns to step S2.
[0053]
<Operation of CPU 31>
FIG. 9 is a flowchart showing the audio data providing process by the CPU 31. In the voice data providing process shown in FIG. 9, the CPU 31 determines whether or not the mobile phone 1 has accessed the voice data download site (step S101). If there is no access (step S101; NO), the CPU 31 continues to wait. If there is an access (step S101; YES), the display data of the voice data selection screen is read from the storage unit 35 and transmitted to the mobile phone 1 by the communication control unit 36 (step S102).
[0054]
Next, the CPU 31 determines whether or not the data of the file name of the audio data and the viewing request data have been received from the mobile phone 1 by the communication control unit 36 (step S103), and if they have been received (step S103; YES). The read-only audio data of the received file name is read from the storage unit 35 and transmitted to the mobile phone 1 by the communication control unit 36 (step S104), and the process returns to step S103.
[0055]
On the other hand, when the CPU 11 does not receive the data of the file name of the audio data and the viewing request data from the mobile phone 1 (step S103; NO), the CPU 11 receives the data of the file name of the audio data and the download request data from the mobile phone 1. It is determined whether or not it has been performed (step S105). When the CPU 11 receives the data of the file name of the audio data and the download request data from the mobile phone 1 (step S105; YES), the CPU 11 reads out the downloaded audio data of the received file name from the storage unit 35, and the communication control unit 36 The message is transmitted to the telephone 1 (step S106), and the process returns to step S103. If not received (step S105; NO), the process directly returns to step S103.
[0056]
As described above, in the information exchange system 100, the CPU 11 of the mobile phone 1 receives the audio data from the information providing device 3 through the wireless communication unit 14 and stores the audio data in the storage unit 15. Further, the CPU 11 sets the sound data selected by the input data from the input unit 12 as the shutter sound, and causes the storage unit 15 to store the set contents. Further, upon detecting the depression of the shutter key of the input unit 12, the CPU 11 causes the photographing unit 17 to perform photographing, reads out the sound data set as the shutter sound from the storage unit 15, and outputs the sound data from the speaker of the transmitting and receiving unit 16. Let it.
[0057]
Therefore, it is possible to freely set the shutter sound to be output when photographing the subject. For this reason, the user of the mobile phone 1 can use the desired voice data as the shutter sound, and if the desired voice data is not stored in the mobile phone 1 in advance, it can be downloaded from the information providing device 3 and used as the shutter sound. Thus, user satisfaction can be improved.
[0058]
The description in the above embodiment is a preferred example of the information transfer system 100 according to the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to this. For example, the CPU 31 of the information providing device 3 may calculate the usage fee of the voice data service based on the data of the download history of the voice data to the mobile phone 1 stored in the information providing device 3.
[0059]
Further, in the above embodiment, the type of audio data used as the shutter sound is not particularly limited. For example, in addition to music and sound effects, a sound obtained by digitizing a shutter sound of a commercially available silver halide camera, a sound such as “Yes cheese”, which is frequently used in shooting, and the like may be used.
[0060]
In addition, each device constituting the information exchange system 100 or the detailed configuration and detailed operation of each device can be appropriately changed without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
