AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional imaging devices display imaging conditions and information outside or on the edge of the captured image, making it difficult for users to easily view and check necessary information during imaging.

Method used

An imaging device with an observation unit that displays related information at a second position inside the display, overlapping with the captured image, allowing users to select and switch this information based on specific operations, and includes a processor to manage display positions and modes according to user preferences and settings.

Benefits of technology

Enhances user convenience by providing easy access to critical imaging information during capture, improving the ability to capture high-quality images by allowing users to easily view and manage display settings tailored to their needs.

Abstract

To provide an imaging apparatus that can display information to be checked by a user at an easily viewed position on a display device of an observation unit.SOLUTION: An imaging apparatus according to one embodiment of the present invention includes an imaging element, an observation unit including a display device and an observation optical system, and a processor configured to display a captured image based on an imaging signal read out from the imaging element and related information related to generation of the captured image, on the display device. The processor is configured to display the related information at a first display position and a second display position on the display device during imaging performed by the imaging element. The second display position is present on an inner side of the display device than the first display position. Types of the related information to be displayed at the second display position are set in advance before imaging. The processor is configured to switch between display and non-display of the related information at the second display position based on a specific operation of a user during imaging.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5
