The mode-setting processor sets a selected and determined mode in accordance with an operation of the mode-setting member.
Claims8
A digital camera with a display, comprising:
- a mode-setter provided on the digital camera, the mode-setter being configured to select and determine a mode from plural modes while electric power is ON;
- an initial-screen displayer, wherein when electric power is turned ON the initial-screen displayer displays an initial-setting screen configured to select an initial mode from a plurality of initial modes including a photographing mode;
- and
- a mode-setting processor that sets a selected and determined mode in accordance with an operation of the mode-setter, wherein the mode-setting processor sets a mode, which was set before the electric power was turned OFF in a previous use, when a given mode is not determined, after a given time has passed.
A recording medium that stores a program for setting a mode associated with a digital camera with a display, comprising:
- an initial-screen displayer, wherein when electric power is turned ON the initial-screen displayer displays an initial-setting screen configured to select an initial mode from a plurality of initial modes including a photographing mode, and wherein the initial-setting screen is provided on the display;
- and
- a mode-setting processor that sets a selected and determined mode in accordance with an operation of a mode-setter, the mode-setter being provided on the digital camera, wherein the mode-setter is configured to select and determine a mode while electric power is ON, wherein the mode-setting processor sets a mode, which was set before the electric power was turned OFF in a previous use, when a given mode is not determined, after a given time has passed.
A computer-readable medium for setting a mode associated with a digital camera with a display, comprising:
- an initial-screen displayer, wherein when electric power is turned ON the initial-screen displayer displays an initial-setting screen configured to select an initial mode from a plurality of initial modes including a photographing mode, and wherein the initial-setting screen is provided on the display;
- and
- a mode-setting processor that sets a selected and determined mode in accordance with an operation of a mode-setter, the mode-setter being provided on the digital camera, wherein the mode-setter is configured to select and determine a mode while electric power is ON, and wherein the mode-setting processor sets a mode, which was set before the electric power was turned OFF in a previous use, when a given mode is not determined, after a given time has passed.
A method for setting a mode associated with a digital camera with a display, comprising:
- when electric power is turned ON, displaying an initial-setting screen configured to select an initial mode from a plurality of initial modes including a photographing mode;
- providing the initial-setting screen on the display;
- and
- setting a selected and determined mode in accordance with an operation of a mode-setter, the mode-setter being provided on the digital camera, wherein the mode-setter is configured to select and determine a mode while electric power is ON, and wherein the mode-setting processor sets a mode, which was set before the electric power was turned OFF in a previous use, when a given mode is not determined, after a given time has passed.
