Benefits of technology
The present invention is an electronic camera that can capture and record images and sound. The invention includes a feature that automatically regenerates the sound to match the captured image, making it easy to enjoy both the image and sound simultaneously. This is achieved by recording audio regeneration data that indicates where the sound is stored when the image is captured. The invention also includes a display and / or an audio regeneration device to allow for the image and sound to be displayed and regenerated simultaneously. Overall, the invention provides a more immersive and complete experience for capturing and sharing images and sound.
Problems solved by technology
However, by the conventional method, the user always has to control the audio regeneration of the audio medium, and in such case errors may occur during operation.

Embodiment Construction
[0022] Hereunder a preferred embodiment of an electronic camera and its recording and regenerating method of the present invention will be described in accordance with accompanying drawings.
[0023]FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an electronic camera according to an embodiment of the present invention. An electronic camera 8 and an audio regeneration device 70 as external equipment are connected to each other through a communication line 72 in FIG. 1; however, the present invention is not limited to this configuration and the audio regeneration device 70 can be built in the electronic camera 8.
[0024] An optical system of the electronic camera 8 comprises a lens 10 which can adjust focus, an iris 12 for adjusting amount of light, and a solid-state imaging device (e.g., charge-coupled device: CCD) 14 for converting image into an electric signal. The image signal which is obtained by the CCD 14 goes through an analog process circuit and an A / D converter both of which are provided in ...

Abstract
Audio regeneration data indicating where sound during audio regeneration is stored is recorded in a recording medium together with captured image data when image-capturing. The image data recorded in the recording medium and the audio regeneration data is read during image regeneration process. The image is displayed in accordance with the image data while the sound during the image-capturing is regenerated in accordance with the audio regeneration data. Therefore, the image and the sound can be easily appreciated simultaneously and the image regeneration can be effectively enjoyed.
Description
[0001] This application is a divisional of U.S. application Ser. No. 09 / 614,919 filed on Jul. 12, 2000. The present application claims the priority benefit of Japanese Patent Application No. 11-197750 filed Jul. 12, 1999 in Japan, the entire contents of which are herein fully incorporated by reference.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0002] 1. Field of the Invention [0003] The present invention relates generally to an electronic camera and its recording and regenerating method, particularly to an electronic camera and its recording and regenerating method which can perform audio-regeneration and image-capture or image-regeneration simultaneously. [0004] 2. Description of Related Art [0005] When regenerating an image which has been captured by an electronic camera for recording a still image and / or a moving image in a recording medium and simultaneously regenerating sound by linking audio data of another audio medium corresponding with the regenerated image, the user controls the audio re...
