Abstract
A digital camera 1 has an image recorder 12, a microprocessor 3, and an image display controller 13. The image recorder 12 records a plurality of sequentially captured images along with a panning mode signal 60 related to the panning operation of the digital camera 1. The microprocessor 3 determines the layout of the plurality of images on the basis of the panning mode signal 60 recorded to the image recorder 12. The image display controller 13 displays a plurality of images side by side on a liquid crystal monitor 55 on the basis of the determination result of the microprocessor 3.
Claims9
A display control device for controlling a display component to display a plurality of images side by side, comprising:
- a recorder configured to record the plurality of images and specific information;
- a layout determiner configured to determine and change a layout of the plurality of images according to the specific information recorded to the recorder, the layout of the plurality of images including a layout of one reference image and at least one comparative image arranged side by side with the reference image;
- and
- an image display controller configured to control the display component to display the reference image and the comparative image side by side according to the layout of the plurality of images determined by the layout determiner, wherein
- the layout determiner determines the layout of the plurality of images such that even when the at least one comparative image arranged side by side with the reference image has been replaced with another image selected from the plurality of images, the at least one comparative image is always different from the reference image according to the specific information.
A display control device for controlling a display component to display a plurality of images side by side, comprising:
- a recorder configured to record the plurality of images and specific information;
- a layout determiner configured to determine and change a layout of the plurality of images according to the specific information recorded to the recorder, by selecting, from among the plurality of images, one reference image and at least one comparative image arranged side by side with the reference image so as to be included in the layout;
- and
- an image display controller configured to control the display component to display the reference image and the comparative image side by side according to the layout of the plurality of images determined by the layout determiner each time the layout determiner has determined or changed the layout of the plurality of images, wherein
- when the layout determiner has selected the one reference image included in the layout, the layout determiner is prevented from selecting, for the at least one comparative image, the same image as the one reference image from among the plurality of images, and the image display controller controls the display component to display only the at least one comparative image that is different from the reference image according to the specific information.
