Imaging device, display device, control method, and method for controlling area change

摘要

An imaging device includes an imaging unit that receives light coming from a subject and thus generates electronic image data; a display unit that displays an image corresponding to the image data; an angle-of-view setting unit that an angle of view to be changed for the image displayed by the display unit according to a first signal input from the outside; and a control unit that starts control of change to a predetermined angle of view set by the angle-of-view setting unit according to a second signal different from the first signal.

主权项

1. An imaging device capable of performing image capturing and non-capturing operations, the imaging device comprising:
an imaging unit that photoelectrically converts light received through an image capturing lens and generates image data; a display unit that displays an image related to the image data; a touch panel provided on the display unit and configured to perform input to receive a user-specified position for changing an angle of view of the image displayed by the display unit; an angle-of-view setting unit that sets an angle of view of the image displayed by the display unit according to the input received by the touch panel; an angle-of-view change pattern setting unit that sets an angle-of-view change pattern, with respect to time, of the image displayed by the display unit according to the input received by the touch panel, to a first angle-of-view change pattern when the imaging device is not capturing an image and to a second angle-of-view change pattern, different from the first angle-of-view change pattern, when the imaging device is capturing an image; and a controller that gradually changes the angle of view of the image displayed by the display unit, with respect to time, using the set one of the first and second angle-of-view change patterns.
