The invention easily photographs a subject from plural directions collectively. When a picture photographing instruction and a moving picture photographing instruction are inputted in a master digital still camera 3 set as a master of photographing for a subject 2, the invention transmits picture photographing instruction data D13 and moving picture photographing instruction data D18 to slave digital still cameras 4A to 4N, subjects the subject 2 to picture photographing and moving picture photographing according to the picture photographing instruction data D13 and the moving picture photographing instruction data D18 with the slave digital still cameras 4A to 4N, and generates and records slave picture-photographed image data D25 and slave moving-picture-photographed image data D26 corresponding to a photographed image of the subject 2. Consequently, it is possible to photograph photographing directions different from one another collectively according to simple operation of inputting a picture photographing instruction and a moving picture photographing instruction to the master digital still camera 3. As a result, it is possible to easily photograph the subject 2 from plural directions collectively.

An imaging apparatus includes: an image generation section that generates at least one of a first captured image having a predetermined size and a second captured image having an aspect ratio different from that of the first captured image; a recording control section that, when an instruction operation to record the generated captured image is received, records the generated captured image based on the instruction operation; and a display control section that, when a captured image to be displayed at the time of displaying the recorded captured image on a display section is the second captured image, displays the second captured image and an enlarged image of a specific region in the second captured image are displayed on the display section in a correlated manner.

The present invention provides a visible and infrared light photographing lens system. A color separating prism or the like divides an object light entering a photographing lens and then passing through a focus lens, into an object light in a visible light region and an object light in an infrared light region. A visible light image pickup element and an infrared light image pickup element are used to pick up images of the respective object lights. Further, a compensation lens can be used to adjust a position where an image of the object light in the infrared light region is formed. Consequently, visible light photographing and infrared light photographing can be simultaneously carried out by focusing on an object at the same distance.

An image-capture apparatus includes a variable magnification lens, imaging means for converting an image taken by the variable magnification lens into an electrical image signal, and imaging control means. By referring to a conversion coordinate coefficient, the image control means moves a point on the image and outputs the new image signal. In the variable magnification lens, in order from the object side, a first lens group having positive refractive power, a second lens group that has negative refractive power and performs a variable magnification action by shifting on an optical axis, a third lens group having positive refractive power, a fourth lens group that has negative refractive power and a fifth lens group having positive refractive power are arrayed.

Recommended composition data, which represent composition images recommended at locations of photography, are stored in a recommended-composition storage medium in correlation with positional information which represents the photography locations. A GPS section receives radio waves from GPS satellites and inputs GPS information to a read-out section. Based on the positional information in the GPS information, the read-out section retrieves the recommended composition data stored in the recommended-composition storage medium. If recommended composition data is desired, it is read out and input to a superposition section. The image data obtained by an imaging section is also input to the superposition section. The desired, recommended composition data and the image data are superposed and displayed on a display unit. The image data is displayed on the display unit in real time so that photographing can be performed with the image data coincident with the desired, recommended composition data.

A photographing apparatus includes a photographing lens; an image acquisition device for acquiring an image of a subject; a recording device for recording the image acquired in accordance with an instruction of actual photographing in a recording medium; a visual line guiding device for guiding a visual line of the subject to the photographing lens; and an activation control device for activating the visual line guiding device according to a photographing situation which is determined based on the image acquired by the image acquisition device.

An object is to provide a display device that makes it easy to photograph a user's face looking at a display screen, or the like, in a dark place. Another object is to provide a display device that makes it easy to check a user's face looking at a display screen, or the like, in a dark place. A display device includes a first region and a second region. The first region has a function of displaying an image of a subject. The second region has a function of illuminating a subject with light. An electronic device includes a display device and an imaging device. The display device includes a first region and a second region. The first region has a function of displaying an image of a subject that is obtained using the imaging device.

Disclosed is a camera lens module which is mounted on a portable wireless terminal. The camera lens module is rotatably mounted on the hinged part of the terminal. The camera lens module makes it possible to photograph in various angles without largely varying the position or angle of the terminal, because the camera lens module is constructed to be rotatable in relation to the terminal without any inconvenience whereby the user must separately assemble or disassemble the camera lens module. In addition, such a construction makes it easy to secure a space for mounting the camera lens module, because the camera module is mounted by means of the hinged part of the terminal.

A pulse wave detection device color converts a frame image of a moving image from RBG to HSV components, and identifies a skin section using the skin color of a user prepared in advance with an H component. The device converts the skin section of the image to YIQ components, and takes Qm as a pulse wave signal, Qm being obtained by averaging the Q values of the pixels. The device then obtains a chronological change in the pulse wave signal Qm and outputs the change as a pulse wave. Accordingly, it is possible to exclude disturbance factors from the pulse wave detection target, and successfully detect a pulse wave. The identification of the skin section is performed using the H component to identify candidate pixels, and using the S component to narrow down the candidate pixels to the target, so high-precision identification of the skin section is possible.
