  • Publication number: 20200404157
    Abstract: A display control device includes a processor and a computer-readable storage medium. The computer-readable storage medium stores a program that, when executed by the processor, causes the processor to determine a present lens position of a lens of a camera device, determine a target position of a target object being photographed by the camera device, and display a first indicator indicating the present lens position and a second indicator indicating the target position on a display in a position relationship corresponding to a relationship between the present lens position and the target position.
