Abstract: An imaging apparatus and a text display method capable of checking an imageable range of a subject without displaying a live view image and also capable of displaying a text corresponding to audio around the subject or an ambient sound on the apparatus main body are provided. The imaging apparatus includes a transparent casing, an imaging unit that is arranged in the casing and acquires a captured image of a subject, a transparent display unit that is arranged in the casing and includes a display screen orthogonal to an imaging direction of the imaging unit, a sound collection unit that includes a microphone and acquires audio or an ambient sound, a text generation unit that generates a text based on the audio or the ambient sound acquired by the sound collection unit, and a display control unit that displays the text generated by the text generation unit on the display unit.

Abstract: A printer-equipped imaging apparatus capable of giving new pleasure to a user and clearly recording an imaged scene, an operation method of a printer-equipped imaging apparatus, and a program are provided. The printer-equipped imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit 2 that acquires a captured image of a subject, a text generation unit that generates a text based on a sound emitted by the subject or a sound around the subject, a print unit that prints the captured image acquired by the imaging unit and the text generated by the text generation unit, the print unit printing a combined photograph of the captured image and the text, and a print control unit that causes the print unit to print the combined photograph.

Abstract: A printer having a printing unit that prints an image; a light emitting unit capable of switching colors of light emission; and a processor configured to: acquire an image to be printed from an external device; detect representative colors of regions by dividing the image to be printed by the printing unit into a plurality of regions; and control light emission of the light emitting unit, wherein the processor further configured to cause the light emitting unit to switch colors of the light emission based on the representative colors of the regions in order according to a printing progress of the image to be printed by the printing unit.
