  • Publication number: 20150382135
    Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention provides a wireless communication apparatus which can automatically switch to an operation mode corresponding to a communication target. The wireless communication apparatus detects a communication target near to the wireless communication apparatus. It determines whether or not the detected communication target is capable of P2P communication with the wireless communication apparatus. In the case of determining that the communication target is capable of P2P communication, the wireless communication apparatus determines that the communication target is a mobile terminal and switches the operation mode to a P2P mode to establish P2P communication with the mobile terminal.

  • Publication number: 20140071325
    Abstract: FIG. 2C depicts a live view screen when a movement is made in a direction of approaching the camera position at the time of pre-photographing (frontward direction) and also in the right direction in the drawing. When the camera position is changed, the display state of a provisional subject image in the live view screen is changed according to the change. In this case, the display size of the provisional subject image is changed according to the movement distance of the camera position in the frontward direction and the display position of the provisional subject image is changed in the left direction according to the movement distance in the right direction.
