Abstract: Conventionally, high-level communication using the message cannot be achieved. The high-level communication using the message can be achieved by a message transmission device including a component candidate group storage unit capable of storing one or more component candidate groups including two or more groups of component candidates forming a content, an input reception unit configured to receive an input for constituting a content including one or more components determined by the selection of one component candidate from two or more component candidates included in one component candidate group, a content constitution unit configured to constitute the content by using the selected one or more components according to the input, and a message transmission unit configured to transmit a message including the content.

Abstract: A graph 261, in which “aperture” is configured on the vertical axis, and “shutter speed” is configured on the horizontal axis, is displayed as superimposed on a through image. On this displayed graph 261, at a position of a parameter value corresponding to a determined photographic scene, an icon 262 of the photographic scene is displayed. When the icon 262 is operated and moved by a user, the display of the icon 262 is changed to a position on the graph 261 where the icon 262 is operated and moved, and values of the vertical axis and the horizontal axis are read off and the corresponding parameter stored in a RAM is updated. When the shutter key is operated, photographic processing is carried out with parameters stored in the RAM, and image data obtained by this photographic processing is recorded in the storage memory.
