The first member includes a first frame-shaped outer wall, a first tip surface, and a tip protrusion protruding from the first tip surface to the second side, and the second member includes a second frame-shaped outer wall, a second tip surface, and a tip recess recessed from the second tip surface toward the second side and fittable to the tip protrusion.

Abstract: Disclosed is a technique for allowing proper classification information to be provided to an edited image. When it is determined that the editing is cropping, a system controller cuts a decompressed image down to a desired size using an image processor and performs face detection on a crop image. The system controller generates a header for image data of an edited image. When the setting of automatically providing classification information is “ON”, classification information is automatically provided based on the detected face information.

Abstract: An image reproduction apparatus which can omit an operation to add specific information such as rotation information of an image when printing is ordered is provided. In the image reproduction apparatus, when printing order information necessary to print the image selected from among the images stored in storage media is generated, additional information of the selected image is read by a system control circuit. Then, when the rotation information of the image is included in the additional information of the read image, the rotation information is added to the printing order information.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus includes a pick-up for picking-up a subject, temporal storage for temporarily storing sets of image information picked up by the pick-up during predetermined time periods, and a display for displaying the stored sets of image information and image information from the pick-up. A subject views the display during image pick-up. Also included is a control that causes temporal storage to store the sets of image information corresponding to the same subject picked up by the pick-up during the predetermined time periods, and causes display of the sets of image information corresponding to the same subject and stored in temporal storage discriminatively from the image information from the pick-up. At least one of the sets of image information is selected corresponding to the same subject in temporal storage.
