1. An imaging apparatus, comprising:
an imaging unit configured to repeatedly capture images of a subject; a movie taking directing unit configured to direct starting and finishing of picture-taking for a movie in a movie mode based on the captured images, wherein the movie mode includes any one or more of a short movie mode, a simple movie mode, a movie mode with manual still-picture, and a movie mode with automatic still-picture; a timing information generating unit configured to generate timing information that indicates a specific time point within an imaging period of the movie in response to one of a manual operation by a user and a change in a picture-taking condition when the imaging unit is repeatedly capturing the images for the movie, the timing information being additional information to movie data of the movie to be used to display an image corresponding to the timing information; a recording unit configured to record the movie in response to the movie taking directing unit and to record the timing information in response to the timing information generating unit when the imaging unit is repeatedly capturing the images for the movie; a display unit; and a display control unit configured to cause the display unit to automatically display an image corresponding to the timing information, which is extracted partially from the movie recorded by the recording unit, just when picture-taking for the movie directed by the movie taking directing unit is finished.
