Imaging apparatus including monitor for displaying object image based on image data, method of controlling the same, and recording medium having recorded thereon computer-readable program code for controlling imaging apparatus

摘要

In an imaging apparatus in which a plurality of sample images are stored, image data acquired by an imaging unit and a sample image used during imaging are displayed simultaneously on a monitor. Thus, a user is allowed to know a directory where image data is to be saved while imaging an object. Furthermore, operation of the imaging unit can be set based on data associated with the sample image. Accordingly, even a user who is not accustomed to operating the imaging apparatus is allowed to image an object with a setting suitable for the status of the object.
