The card slots 22 and 23 are disposed on the bottom surface of the digital camera 1, and the card slot 23 is disposed on the left side of the card slot 22 when viewed from the back surface of the digital camera 1. The memory card 18 is a recording medium for recording a person image, and a plurality of person images are recorded in advance. The memory card 19 is a recording medium for recording landscape images, and only a plurality of landscape images are recorded in advance. Note that the type of the memory card 18 and the type of the memory card 19 may be the same or different.

  The focus lens 2 and the zoom lens 3 are each composed of a lens group (not shown). The motor drive block 20 includes a focus motor 200a that drives the focus lens 2 in the optical axis direction, a zoom motor 200b that drives the zoom lens 3 in the optical axis direction, and a focus motor 200a and a zoom motor 200b according to control signals sent from the CPU 13. Are configured by motor drivers 201a and 201b. Both the focus motor 200a and the zoom motor 200b are stepping motors.

  The CCD 4 photoelectrically converts the subject image projected through the focus lens 2 and outputs it as an imaging signal. The TG 6 generates a timing signal with a predetermined frequency and drives the CCD 4. The CDS / AD block 5 samples the output signal from the CCD 4 to remove noise and convert it into a digital signal. The CCD data preprocessing block 7 performs data processing such as luminance signal processing on the imaging signal converted into a digital signal. The color processing (CP) block 8 performs color processing such as color separation on the image signal that has been subjected to luminance signal processing and the like, and generates Y, Cb, and Cr image data. The DRAM 10 sequentially stores Y, Cb, and Cr image data after color processing.

  The display unit 14 includes an LCD (Liquid Crystal Display) 21 which is a display screen shown in FIG. 2 and a drive circuit for driving the LCD. In the shooting standby state where the shutter key 27 is not pressed while the shooting mode is set, the display unit 14 displays a through image based on image data for one frame (screen) captured from the CCD 4 and stored in the DRAM 10. Displayed on the LCD 21. In addition, the display unit 14 displays a recorded image based on the image data read from the memory cards 18 and 19 on the LCD 21 together with the through image in a state in which a later-described shooting playback mode is set.

  The JPEG encoder 9 JPEG-compresses the image data input from the color processing (CP) block 8 during image recording (during imaging processing). Memory cards 18 and 19 which are recording media for recording captured images record the compressed image data sent via the card interfaces 16 and 17, respectively.

The CPU 13 functions as a display control unit, a setting unit, and a recording control unit by operating the RAM 12 as a working memory in accordance with an operation signal from the key block 15 and a program stored in the flash memory 11.

(Description of operation of this embodiment)
Next, an operation according to the present invention of the digital camera 1 having the above configuration will be described. When the power is turned on, the CPU 13 operates according to the program to execute processing as shown in the flowchart of FIG. First, the CPU 13 causes the display unit 14 to display a through image based on image data for one frame (screen) captured from the CCD 4 and accumulated in the DRAM 10.

  Immediately after the power is turned on, as shown in FIG. 4, the through image is displayed in the captured image area 41 which is a display area located at the center of the LCD 21. In the LCD 21, a playback image area 42 is provided on the right side of the captured image area 41 and a playback image area 43 is provided on the left side of the display area outside the captured image area 41 with the captured image area 41 interposed therebetween. At this point, the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 display photographing conditions such as ISO sensitivity and shutter speed.

  Here, when the user operates the menu key 26, a menu screen is displayed on the LCD 21. When the user selects “playback mode during shooting” which is an operation mode according to the present invention on this menu screen and operates the SET key 25, the CPU 13 sets the playback mode during shooting in response to this operation signal. (Step S1).

  Following step S1, the CPU 13 determines whether or not a memory card is inserted into both the card slots 22 and 23 (step S2). When the memory card is installed in both the card slots 22 and 23, the CPU 13 determines that the memory card is installed in both the card slots 22 and 23 (YES in step S2). Next, the CPU 13 causes the LCD 21 to display the recorded images already recorded in the memory cards 18 and 19 in the thumbnail format in the playback image areas 42 and 43 of the LCD 21, respectively, as shown in FIG. Is terminated (step S3). Hereinafter, the description will be continued assuming that the memory card 18 is installed in the card slot 22 and the memory card 19 is installed in the card slot 23.

  In step S 3, three person images 181, 182, and 183 among the person images already recorded on the person image recording memory card 18 are displayed on the LCD 21 in a thumbnail format in the reproduction image area 42. . Also, three landscape images 191, 192, 193 among the landscape images already recorded on the landscape image recording memory card 19 are displayed in the playback image area 43 in a thumbnail format. That is, the left and right arrangement relationship of the card slots 22 and 23 corresponds to the left and right arrangement relationship of the reproduction image areas 42 and 43. As described above, the memory card 18 is installed in the card slot 22, and the memory card 19 is installed in the card slot 23. Therefore, the reproduction image area 42 corresponds to the memory card 18, and the reproduction image area 43 corresponds to the memory card 19.

  Subsequent to step S3, the CPU 13 enters a standby state in order to detect an instruction to select a memory card that is a recording destination of the captured image (step S4). In this state, the cursor frame 51 is displayed in the reproduction image area 42 until the CPU 13 detects the first selection instruction, and the CPU 13 selects the memory card 18 corresponding to the reproduction image area 42 as the recording destination of the photographed image. Yes. The cursor frame 51 is an index indicating which one of the memory cards 18 and 19 is selected as the recording destination of the captured image.

  In step S4, when the left / right key of the cross key 24 is operated by the user, in response to the operation signal, the CPU 13 detects an instruction to select the recording destination of the captured image (YES in step S4). Then, the cursor frame 51 moves to the playback image area on the opposite side across the through image, and the CPU 13 selects the memory card corresponding to the playback image area where the cursor frame 51 is displayed as the recording destination of the captured image. (Step S5). On the other hand, if the CPU 13 does not detect an instruction for selecting the recording destination of the captured image (NO in step S4), the process proceeds to step 6.

  Following step S5, the CPU 13 detects a scroll instruction for scrolling the recorded images (hereinafter referred to as “thumbnail images”) recorded on the memory card displayed in the thumbnail format in the reproduction image areas 42 and 43. It is in a standby state (step S6). In this state, when the user operates the up / down key of the cross key 24, the CPU 13 detects a scroll instruction for the thumbnail image displayed in the reproduction image area where the cursor frame 51 is displayed (YES in step S6). ), Go to step S7. On the other hand, if the CPU 13 does not detect a scroll instruction (NO in step S6), the process proceeds to step 8.

  In step S7, when the user operates the lower key of the cross key 24, the CPU 13 detects a scroll instruction and scrolls the thumbnail image displayed in the reproduction image area where the cursor frame 51 is displayed. . For example, when the CPU 13 detects a scroll instruction in a state where the memory card 18 is selected as the recording destination of the photographed image and the cursor frame 51 is displayed in the reproduction image area 42, as shown in FIG. The thumbnail image displayed in the area 42 is scrolled downward. Then, the display of the thumbnail image 181 is terminated, and a new recorded image 184 recorded on the memory card 18 is newly displayed in the playback image area 42 in the thumbnail format. The CPU 13 scrolls the thumbnail images each time a scroll instruction is detected.

  Subsequent to step S7, the CPU 13 is in a standby state to detect a setting instruction for setting the selected memory card as a recording destination of the captured image (step S8). In this state, when the SET button 25 is operated by the user, in response to this operation signal, the CPU 13 detects a setting instruction (YES in step S8) and sets the selected memory card to the recording destination of the captured image. (Step S9), and the process proceeds to step S14. If the CPU 13 does not detect the setting instruction (NO in step S8), the CPU 13 is in a standby state until it is detected.

  On the other hand, if the memory card is not inserted into both the card slots 22 and 23 and the CPU 13 determines that the memory card is not inserted into both the card slots 22 and 23 (NO in step S2), the CPU 13 Then, it is determined whether or not the memory card is inserted into one of the card slots 22 and 23 (step S10).

  If the memory card is mounted in one of the card slots 22 and 23 and the CPU 13 determines that the memory card is mounted in one of the card slots 22 and 23 (YES in step S10), the process proceeds to step S11. Hereinafter, the description will be continued assuming that the memory card 18 is installed in the card slot 22 and no memory card is installed in the card slot 23.

  In step S11, as shown in FIG. 9, the CPU 13 causes the LCD 21 to display the recorded images 181, 182 and 183 already recorded on the memory card 18 in the thumbnail format of the reproduction image area 42 of the LCD 21. Next, the CPU 13 sets the memory card 18 installed in the card slot 22 as a recording destination of the captured image (step S12), and proceeds to step S14.

  If the memory card is not inserted into either of the card slots 22 and 23 and the CPU 13 determines that it is not inserted into one of the card slots 22 and 23 (NO in step S10), the CPU 13 The memory 11 is set as the recording destination of the photographed image (step S13), and the process proceeds to step S14. In this case, the shooting conditions remain displayed in the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 of the LCD 21.

  Following any of steps S9, S12, and S13, the CPU 13 enters a standby state to determine whether or not a shooting instruction has been issued (step S14). In this state, when the user operates the shutter key 27, in response to the operation signal, the CPU 13 detects a shooting instruction (YES in step S14), executes a shooting process, and generates a shot image. . The generated captured image is compressed by the JPEG method and recorded in the memory card or flash memory 11 set as the recording destination (step S15), and the process proceeds to step S16.

  In step S <b> 15, when the memory card 18 is set as the recording destination of the captured image, the captured image is recorded on the memory card 18. When the memory cards 18 and 19 are respectively inserted in the card slots 22 and 23, as shown in FIG. 7, the thumbnail image in the reproduction image area 42 corresponding to the memory card 18 is scrolled immediately after shooting. The captured image 511 recorded in the memory card 18 is displayed in the thumbnail format in the reproduction image area 42 (step S16).

  In step S15, if the memory card is not inserted into any of the card slots 22 and 23, that is, if the flash memory 11 is set as the recording destination of the captured image, the captured image is stored in the flash memory 11. To be recorded. In this case, the photographed image is not displayed in the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 after photographing, and step S16 is omitted.

  Next, a case where both of the memory cards 18 and 19 are set as the recording destination of the captured image when the memory card is mounted in both of the card slots 22 and 23 will be described. In this case, the description will be made assuming that the memory card 18 is installed in the card slot 22 and the memory card 19 is installed in the card slot 23.

  After any one of the memory cards 18 and 19 is set as the recording destination of the photographed image in step 9 described above, the user does not operate the shutter key 27 in step S14, and the CPU 13 detects the photographing instruction. If not (NO in step S14), the process returns to step 4 again.

  Here, when the left / right key of the cross key 24 is operated by the user and the cursor frame 51 moves on the LCD 21, a memory card different from the memory card already set as the recording destination is newly selected. In this case, in response to this operation signal, the CPU 13 newly selects the other memory card (step S5). Thus, both the memory cards 18 and 19 are selected.

  Following step S5, the CPU 13 is in a standby state to detect the scroll instruction again (step S6). Here, when the user operates the lower key of the cross key 24 once, the CPU 13 detects a scroll instruction and scrolls the thumbnail image. In this case, the thumbnail images displayed in both the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 are scroll-displayed simultaneously by one operation of the cross key 24.

  Subsequent to step S7, the CPU 13 is in a standby state in order to detect again a setting instruction for setting the other newly selected memory card as a recording destination of the captured image (step S8). In this state, when the SET button 25 is operated by the user, in response to the operation signal, the CPU 13 detects a setting instruction (YES in step S8), and picks up the selected other memory card as a captured image. Is newly set as the recording destination (step S9). As a result, both the memory cards 18 and 19 are set as recording destinations for the captured images.

  Following step S9, the CPU 13 enters a standby state to determine again whether or not a shooting instruction has been issued (step S14). In this state, when the user operates the shutter key 27, in response to the operation signal, the CPU 13 detects a shooting instruction (YES in step S14), executes a shooting process, and generates a shot image. . The generated captured image is compressed by the JPEG method and recorded on both the memory cards 18 and 19 set as recording destinations (step S15).

  As described above, when both the memory cards 18 and 19 are set as the recording destinations of the captured images, as shown in FIG. 8, the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 corresponding to the memory cards 18 and 19 are immediately after shooting. The thumbnail images are scrolled, and the captured images 511 recorded in the memory cards 18 and 19 are displayed in the reproduced image areas 42 and 43 in the thumbnail format (step S16).

As described above, the CPU 13 ends the process according to the flowchart of FIG.

  As described above, according to the digital camera 1 of the present embodiment, the through image and the recorded image recorded on the memory cards 18 and 19 are simultaneously displayed on the LCD 21. Thereby, for example, when the subject on the through image is a person and the user desires to record this subject as a person image, the thumbnail image recorded in the memory card 18 and displayed in the reproduction image area 42 is used. It can be understood that the subject should be recorded on the memory card 18. On the other hand, when the subject on the through image is a landscape, and the user desires to record this subject as a landscape image, the subject is recorded by the thumbnail image recorded in the memory card 19 and displayed in the reproduction image area 43. Can be recorded on the memory card 19. That is, according to the user's intention, it is possible to reliably distribute the recorded image to each memory card.

  Further, since the through image and the recorded image recorded on the memory cards 18 and 19 are displayed on the LCD 21 at the same time, the user can determine whether the captured image should be recorded on either or both of the memory cards 18 and 19. In making the determination, it is not necessary to switch between the shooting mode and the playback mode, and these images can be easily compared.

  In addition, since the recorded images recorded on the memory cards 18 and 19 are displayed outside the through image on the LCD 21, the through image is not hidden by the recorded image, and the memory cards 18 and 19 are captured at the time of shooting. Even if the recorded image recorded on the screen is displayed, the through image is easy to see.

  Further, since the left and right arrangement relationship of the card slots 22 and 23 and the right and left arrangement relationship of the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 correspond to each other, when the user sets the recording destination of the captured image, the memory cards 18 and 19 Which one should be set can be intuitively grasped. As a result, the memory cards 18 and 19 can be used more reliably depending on the application.

  Also, immediately after shooting, the thumbnail image of the shot image is displayed in the playback display area corresponding to the memory card in which the shot image is recorded, so that the user can record the shot image in the memory card set as the recording destination. You can confirm that

  Further, if both the memory cards 18 and 19 are set as the recording destination of the photographed image, the photographed image can be recorded on both the memory cards 18 and 19 by one photographing. For example, when a photographed image includes both a person and a landscape, either the memory card 18 for recording a person image or the memory card 19 for recording a landscape image is appropriate as the recording destination of the photographed image. In such a case, according to the type of the subject, the recording destination of the photographed image can be set to both the memory cards 18 and 19 in a flexible manner, and the usability of the digital camera 1 is improved.

  In addition, since the recorded images recorded on the memory cards 18 and 19 are displayed in the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 and scroll display is enabled, the recorded images recorded on the memory cards 18 and 19 are displayed. You can browse all of them and check the usage in detail.

  Further, when the shooting mode is not set, the shooting conditions are displayed in the playback image areas 42 and 43. Therefore, even when the shooting mode is not set, the playback image areas 42 and 43 are displayed. Can be used effectively.

(Modification)
In the present embodiment, a memory card that is a recording destination of a photographed image is set before photographing by operating the shutter key 27. However, after shooting by operating the shutter key 27, a memory card as a recording destination of the shot image may be set. In this case, in the shooting standby state, a through image is displayed in the captured image area 41 and displayed in the reproduction image areas 42 and 43. When shooting is performed by operating the shutter key 27, the shot image is temporarily recorded in the flash memory 11. In this state, when the user operates the cross key 24 and the SET key 25 to select and set the memory card that is the recording destination of the photographed image, the memory card is finally set to the memory card that is set as the recording destination. Will be recorded.

  In the present embodiment, the memory cards 18 and 19 are two recording media for recording captured images. However, the number of card slots may be three or more, and the number of memory cards used at the time of shooting may be three or more. For example, when the number of memory cards is four, the display area of the image recorded on each recording medium in the LCD 21 may be anywhere within the reproduction image areas 42 and 43. However, regardless of the number of memory cards to be used, the thumbnail images displayed in the reproduction image areas 42 and 43 must be displayed so that they can be distinguished for each memory card.

  In the present embodiment, after shooting, a thumbnail image of the shot image is displayed in the playback display area corresponding to the memory card set as the recording destination, so that the user can take the shot image on the memory card set as the recording destination. It was possible to confirm that was recorded. However, after photographing, a message indicating that the photographed image has been recorded on the memory card set as the recording destination may be displayed on the LCD 21. This message also allows the user to confirm that the captured image has been recorded on the memory card set as the recording destination.

  In the present embodiment, the subject of the present invention has been described as a digital camera, but the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a mobile phone with a camera or a PDA can also be an object of the present invention.
