Abstract: An electronic still camera, comprises a lens to form an image of a subject; a distant measuring section to measure a distance to a subject and to output a distance signal; an image capturing focusing section having a driving section to shift the lens within a scanning range determined based on the distance signal, an image capturing element to output an image signal of the image of the subject and a detecting section to detect a focusing point of the lens based on the image signal; and a light measuring section to measure a luminance of the subject and to output a luminance signal. The image capturing focusing section changes the scanning range of the lens in accordance with the luminance signal measured by the light measuring section.

Abstract: An electronic camera which photographs images of an object, outputs image signals corresponding to the images, and stores the image signals with an assigned file name. A display on the electronic camera displays images corresponding to the stored image signals. Along with each displayed image signal, the electronic camera's display also displays the assigned file name and a frame number. If a user chooses to delete a particular image, the frame numbers for stored image signals following the deleted image are advanced by one, in order to maintain an unbroken numerical sequence. The file names assigned to each stored image signal will remain unchanged.

Abstract: An apparatus for recording a photographed image on a recording medium together with information received from a satellite of GPS (Global Positioning System). The apparatus includes a first memory to store recording data on the recording medium; a second memory to store the information received thereafter by a GPS receiver; and a judging circuit for determining whether the later recording data is to be shifted from the second memory to the first memory when the shutter is actuated.

Abstract: In an apparatus for reproducing a photographed image on each frame of a developed photographic roll film, wherein each frame includes an image region on which the photographed image is provided and a memory region in which information with regard to the photographed image is stored, an information reader for reading the information stored in the memory region; a processing circuit for processing image signals photoelectrically obtained by an image reader on the bases of the information; and the processed image signals are displayed on the screen.

Abstract: A data recording unit in use with a camera for recording information data, obtained through a GPS receiver, on a photographing film. The data recording unit includes: a selector for selecting a geodetic system from plural geodetic systems; a data converter for converting position information data, obtained through the GPS receiver, to converted position information data in the geodetic system which is selected by the selector; and a printing LED for recording the converted position information data on the photographic film together with images photographed by the camera.
