Abstract
A digital camera with a printer is a digital camera with a printer and includes a communication unit that communicates with a digital camera with a printer that is another apparatus, and an image composition unit that generates a composite image in which a first image captured by the digital camera with a printer that is an owned apparatus and a second image captured by the other apparatus are composited, in which the communication unit transmits the composite image to the other apparatus. A user of the other apparatus can also obtain the composite image. Accordingly, the composite image can be enjoyed by capturing images using a plurality of cameras.

A digital camera, comprising:
- an imager;
- a printer;
- a storage configured to store an automatic print permission list;
- and
- a processor configured to:
- communicate with another digital camera to receive a composite image in which a first image captured by the other digital camera and a second image captured through the imager are composited;
- in a case where the other digital camera is registered in the automatic print permission list, cause the printer to print the received composite image independently of an instruction operation of a user;
- and
- in a case where the other digital camera is not registered in the automatic print permission list, cause the printer to print the received composite image according to the instruction operation of the user.
A method of controlling a digital camera including an imager, a printer, and a storage configured to store an automatic print permission list, the method comprising:
- communicating with another digital camera to receive a composite image in which a first image captured by the other digital camera and a second image captured through the imager are composited;
- in a case where the other digital camera is registered in the automatic print permission list, causing the printer to print the received composite image independently of an instruction operation of a user;
- and
