Abstract: A video recording apparatus that is capable of reducing generation of error in a time code due to an auto-power-off function. A setting unit sets a count method by which a time code given to a video image is counted by selecting from among a plurality of count methods including a free run mode in which the time code is counted regardless of whether a video image is recording. A control unit controls so as to perform auto power off to turn off power when a predetermined condition, which includes a condition where there is no user's operation within a predetermined period, is satisfied in a mode other than the free run mode. The control unit controls so as not to turn off the power even when the predetermined condition is satisfied in the free run mode.

Abstract: A display unit that moves into a first position and a second position with respect to a main body portion includes setting, where the display unit is in the first position, any of a plurality of settings including a first setting, with which a normal image of an image is displayed, and a second setting, with which a mirror image of an image is displayed, and displaying, where the display unit is in the second position with the first setting, an image that has an orientation opposite to that of the image displayed when the display unit is in the first position with the first setting, and when the display unit is in the second position with the second setting, an image is displayed with the same orientation as the image displayed when the display unit is in the first position with the second setting.

Abstract: An image processing apparatus capable of reducing storage capacity and lightening processing loads while keeping visual quality of shooting information high. An output unit resizes a taken image into images with resolutions corresponding to respective resolutions of a plurality of image output destinations including a display unit and output the images at the same time. A superimposition unit individually superimposes shooting information corresponding to the respective resolutions of the plurality of image output destinations on the images. A control unit provides control such that the shooting information is superimposed on the image output to the display unit and a selected image output destination and the output unit outputs the same, and that the output unit outputs the image to an image output destination that has not been selected without superimposing the shooting information on the image.

Abstract: In order to give a tactile signal with sufficient time even in a case where the displayed screen changes at a high speed, if a current scrolling speed is equal to or higher than a preset speed in scrolling a screen, a CPU determines whether a search point exists within a range calculated by multiplying the scrolling speed and a coefficient n within a specific distance in proportion to the current scrolling speed S. If a search point exists, a feedback duration count is reset, and a process for executing a tactile feedback is performed. A larger range is set for determining the presence/absence of a bookmark for a higher playback speed than a low speed to execute a tactile feedback as described above.

Abstract: A display control apparatus includes a moving image display unit configured to control a display apparatus to display a moving image thereon, a reading unit configured to read animation information including a plurality of frame images, a detection unit configured to detect touch on the display apparatus, and a display control unit configured to control the display apparatus to display a first frame image of the animation information thereon if touch on a specific position of the display apparatus is detected by the detection unit when the moving image is being displayed on the display aparatus, and to start a transition display of frame images of the animation information if the touch on the display apparatus becomes undetected by the detection unit.

Abstract: This invention provides a display control apparatus capable of more quickly displaying the next image while suppressing a decrease in viewability. The apparatus displays an image together with an added non-image area when displaying, in a display area of a display unit to be used to display an image, the image having an aspect ratio different from that of the display area. Upon accepting a scroll operation of instructing scroll display of the image displayed in the display area, the apparatus performs the scroll display in accordance with the scroll operation. At this time, the apparatus adjusts the non-image area to decrease the width of the non-image area in the moving direction of the scroll during execution of the scroll display as the operation amount of the accepted scroll operation increases.

Abstract: In a frame recording mode for shooting a moving image including the predetermined number of frames in one shot or an interval recording mode, if a time length available for recording a moving image becomes less than predetermined time, not the recordable time but the number of times capable of shooting a moving image including the predetermined number of frames is displayed as information about a remaining capacity of a recording medium.

Abstract: When rendering a graphic according to the locus of an input position, it is determined whether a region which has been preset for the graphic to be rendered, and has the start position of the continuous input as a reference overlaps a region preset for an already rendered graphic by a predetermined amount or more. If it is determined that the regions do not overlap each other by the predetermined amount or more, a graphic is rendered according to the locus of the input position. Alternatively, if it is determined that the regions overlap each other by the predetermined amount or more, control is switched to remove the already rendered graphic according to the locus of the input position.

Abstract: When an autorotation function is ON and an object is photographed by holding a main body in an inverse attitude, rotation units rotate a camera image by 360 degrees in total and a rotation unit rotates display OSD data by 180 degrees. A combine unit combines outputs of the rotation units and writes panel-output image data into a VRAM. A combine unit combines recording OSD data drawn by a touch drawing function to the camera image rotated by 180 degrees in the rotation unit and writes into a recording VRAM. The image data in the recording VRAM is encoded and recorded as a moving image file into a recording medium.

Abstract: In a case where a dripproof case is not used, a CPU changes a position of a touch icon which is displayed to an LCD panel in accordance with a detection result of an attitude detection unit. In a case where the dripproof case in which a touch panel can be operated from the outside is used and a case mode is ON, a CPU fixes a display position of the touch icon to a position corresponding to an operation unit of the dripproof case irrespective of the detection result of the attitude detection unit.
