Electronic camera

An electronic camera, comprising:

• an image-capturing unit capturing a subject image and generating an image;
• a selecting unit continuously selecting a focus detection object area at a time of image-capturing by the image-capturing unit based on the image generated by the image-capturing unit;
• a displaying unit capable of displaying the image generated by the image-capturing unit;
• a generating unit cutting out a part corresponding to the focus detection object area from the image generated by the image-capturing unit and generating a tracking object checking image;
• an overwatching unit overwatching a selection accuracy of the focus detection object area selected by the selecting unit;
• and
• a controlling unit displaying on the displaying unit by overlapping a through image generated by the image-capturing unit and the tracking object checking image at the time of image-capturing by the image-capturing unit, and only displaying the tracking object checking image when the selection accuracy becomes lower than a predetermined accuracy.
