Publication number: 20200257422Abstract: First and second reception units receive a setting instruction for a first correspondence relationship which is a correspondence relationship between a direction of a first operation performed on a touch-type operation unit and a movement direction in which a list image moves with respect to a screen in response to the first operation, and a second correspondence relationship which is a correspondence relationship between a direction of a second operation performed on a direction instruction key and a movement direction in which the list image moves with respect to the screen in response to the second operation. An information management unit sets the first correspondence relationship and the second correspondence relationship. A command output unit decides the movement direction of the list image with respect to the screen based on the first correspondence relationship or the second correspondence relationship in a case where the first operation or the second operation is performed.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 29, 2020Publication date: August 13, 2020Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Tomokazu NAKAMURA, Yoshikuni NISHIURA, Takeharu OMATA, Nanae SAKUMA

Publication number: 20200260016Abstract: A display control unit displays an enlarged image and a guide frame on a screen. First and second reception units (reception unit) receive a setting instruction for a correspondence relationship between an operation direction of a gesture operation and a movement direction of an enlargement display region. An information management unit (setting unit) sets the correspondence relationship in response to the setting instruction. A command output unit (deciding unit) decides a movement direction in a region of a captured image based on the correspondence relationship in a case where the gesture operation is performed. The display control unit moves the enlargement display region in the decided movement direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 30, 2020Publication date: August 13, 2020Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Takeshi MISAWA, Yoshikuni NISHIURA, Takeharu OMATA, Nanae SAKUMA

Patent number: 10645233Abstract: There are provided a printer, a digital camera with a printer, and a printing method which are capable of simply printing an image having photographic composition intended by a user. A frame layout is displayed on a monitor. Based on an operation of an operation unit, images stored in an internal memory are displayed in frames, and images to be arranged in the frames are selected. In this case, portions of the images corresponding to the frames are cut out, and the images are displayed in the frames. Based on an operation of the operation unit, the images to be arranged in the frames are adjusted by zooming and/or moving the images to be arranged in the frames within the frames. After setting of images for all the frames is completed, an image displayed on the monitor is printed according to a print instruction.Type: GrantFiled: November 27, 2017Date of Patent: May 5, 2020Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Yoshikuni Nishiura, Shinichi Fujimoto, Tsuneo Sato

Publication number: 20180176397Abstract: There are provided a printer with good operability, a digital camera with a printer, and an information display method of a printer. In a digital camera with a printer, a printing target image is displayed on a monitor. In a case where an image being displayed on the monitor is printed, an imaging image to be printed is displayed so as to be overlapped on the image being displayed. The imaging image is moved along an ejection direction of a medium, and is removed from a screen.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 1, 2017Publication date: June 21, 2018Applicant: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Yoshikuni NISHIURA, Shinichi FUJIMOTO, Tsuneo SATO

Patent number: 8564709Abstract: Selection candidates for number of imaging pixels and for an image compression rate are displayed in a two-dimensional arrangement on a setting screen for setting an image quality, and combinations of selectable number of image pixels and a compression rate can be presented to a user. An instruction for moving a cursor which displays a selected position on the screen is received, and a setting can be changed to a number of pixels and a compression rate which are pointed by the cursor after a position of the cursor is designated. More specifically, numbers of pixels to be selected are 2400×1800, 1280×960, and 640×480, and compression rates to be selected are Fine, Normal, and Basic. When the user selects the number of pixels, candidates of the selectable compression rate for the number of pixels are displayed.Type: GrantFiled: June 16, 2011Date of Patent: October 22, 2013Assignee: FUJIFILM CorporationInventors: Masashi Inoue, Yoshikuni Nishiura

Patent number: 8189087Abstract: Usually, reduced images of past photographed images are displayed with a live view image. When a still image is photographed, the photographed image (post-view image) is displayed, and then an animation that allows a user to intuitively recognize that the image has been successfully photographed and the photographed image has been saved is displayed. Accordingly, a user of an imaging device can intuitively recognize that a photographed image has been successfully saved, and photograph a next image without performing any special operation on a camera.Type: GrantFiled: March 17, 2009Date of Patent: May 29, 2012Assignee: Fujifilm CorporationInventors: Takeshi Misawa, Yoshikuni Nishiura

Publication number: 20080152336Abstract: An imaging apparatus comprises: a shooting requesting unit which receives an input indicating that shooting request to a person is made; and a shooting request mode setting unit which sets an angle of view of the image data displayed by the display unit to a predetermined range smaller than an angle of view captured by the imaging unit in response to the input to the shooting requesting unit. The display unit displays a post-view image which is an image data decoded from compressed coded image data in the recording unit within a range of the displayed angle of view set by the shooting request mode setting unit. Thus, the image actually recorded and displayed in the reproducing mode includes larger region of the post-view image. Therefore, the cutoff of heads and legs, etc. of an object at a peripheral region of the image can be compensated.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 20, 2007Publication date: June 26, 2008Applicant: FUJIFILM CORPORATIONInventors: Toshita Hara, Yoshikuni Nishiura, Yuuki Okabe, Akemi Oda

Publication number: 20050263026Abstract: Image data obtained through an image sensor is written in a memory. When printing an image, a printing head is driven in accordance with the image data read out from the memory in a line sequential fashion, and is synchronously moved in a sub scan direction, thereby exposing the instant film line by line. The image appears on the exposed instant film as a developing solution is developed by developing rollers while the instant film is advanced out through the developing rollers. Alternatively, the printing head is driven synchronously with the instant film being advanced. Thereby an image is printed at one sub scanning without the need for moving the printing head. The printing head is provided with an array of three color light emitting elements, and three color light beams are simultaneously projected onto the instant film.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 28, 2005Publication date: December 1, 2005Applicant: FUJI PHOTO FILM CO., LTD.Inventors: Ko Aosaki, Hiroshi Omura, Hiroyuki Uchiyama, Yoshikuni Nishiura, Toshita Hara
