Abstract
First pixels and second pixels are arranged in an LCD of a digital camera. Image light from the first pixel is diffused by a diffusing filter. Image light from the second pixel is deflected by a prism and directed in an oblique direction. When the LCD is viewed from a forward direction, only a captured image generated by the first pixels is observed. When the LCD is viewed from the oblique direction, the captured image, and camera information generated by the second pixels are observed in a state that they overlap each other.
Claims3
A digital camera which captures an image of a subject, said digital camera comprising:
- a display device for displaying a first image viewed from a first direction and a second image viewed from a second direction that is different from said first direction on a display surface;
- and
- a display controller for directing said display device to display said captured image as said first image and camera information of said digital camera as said second image,
- wherein said first direction is a direction substantially perpendicular to said display surface and said second direction is a downward, upward or lateral oblique direction to said display surface,
- wherein said display device has a liquid crystal panel in which first pixels and second pixels are arranged, said first pixels displaying said first image and said second pixels displaying said second image, and
- wherein said first pixels are viewable from said oblique direction and when said first image is viewed from said oblique direction, said first image overlaps said second image and appears darker than said second image.
