That is,, then follow,, select required image by the user at step S102 if selected play mode at step S101.At step S103, the image to selecting here judges whether to be appointed as the secret image.
Then,, that is, carried out the camera operation of regulation, then moved on to step S104, additional private information if be appointed as the secret image.Meanwhile, at step S105, finish the demonstration of this image at once.If, then can allow other people pass round relievedly, so that allow other people see secret image image in addition for finishing the camera of this operation.
In addition,, under the situation of the appointment that does not have the secret image, move on to step S106, carry out above-mentioned steps S101～S106 repeatedly, up to the process stipulated time at step S103.Then, if, then move on to step S105, finish to show through the stipulated time.
Also have, fully with the secret image recording under the situation of another regional mode of recording portion, can carry out the program of operation program shown in Figure 14.
That is, at first, select to judge play mode at step S111.If play mode then at step S112, is selected required image by the user.At step S113,, judge whether to be appointed as the secret image to selected image.
Then, if be appointed as the secret image, that is, carried out the camera operation of regulation, then moved on to step S114, to the image of above-mentioned selected appointment, the camera operation of stipulating, with the image conveyer that is positioned at the 1st posting field originally to the 2nd zone that secret is used.Then, at step S115, deletion is positioned at the data in the 1st zone.Thus, form the data that other people can't see simply,, finish to show at step S116.
In addition,, under the situation that does not have the appointment of secret image, move on to step S117, carry out above-mentioned steps S111～S117 repeatedly, up to the process stipulated time at above-mentioned steps S113.And if through the stipulated time, then move on to step S116, the end demonstration.
Being programmed to CPU20 like this: under the situation of watching the secret image,, then can show in case for example resemble the numeral of inputing the password of regulation the personal computer or utilizing the demonstration timer specified that the date uses.
As mentioned above; according to the present invention; can record, in the Electrofax of playing image, sound; for example distinguish such as personal contents etc. and do not wish disclosed information of nonspecific majority and ostensible information are carried out record; if because the operation of when playing, not stipulating; therefore then can not play and not wish disclosed information, the Electrofax that not only can protect personal information but also can be appreciated broadcast by a plurality of people can be provided.
