Abstract: In a camera for displaying a plurality of control contents such as set values and functions controlled by a plurality of operation members on an LCD device, there are provided a plurality of display areas which constitute the LCD device and are formed by dividing the LCD device so as to correspond to the respective control contents of the operation members. An operation section is constituted of the operation members and disposed such that the divided shape of the display areas is the same as, or similar to, a divided shape of the operation section constituted of the operation members. According to a preferred embodiment, in a camera for displaying a plurality of control contents such as set values and functions controlled by a plurality of operation members on an LCD device, there are provided a plurality of display areas which constitute the LCD device and are formed by dividing the LCD device so as to correspond to the respective control contents of the operation members.

Abstract: A multi-function camera having a display unit in which the different operational modes are displayed in different colors. The operational modes are controlled by manipulation members on the exterior surface of the camera. The manipulation members are color coordinated with the respective operational modes. As a result, a photographer can quickly consult the display unit to find out the operational mode that the multi-function camera is operating in. Furthermore, the color coordination also makes it easier for a photographer to set the multi-function camera in the proper operational mode.
