Because a mirror electron imaging type inspection apparatus for obtaining an inspection object image with mirror electrons has been difficult to optimize inspection conditions, since the image forming principles of the apparatus are different from those of conventional SEM type inspection apparatuses. In order to solve the above conventional problem, the present invention has made it possible for the user to examine such conditions as inspection speed, inspection sensitivity, etc. intuitively by displaying the relationship among the values of inspection speed S, inspection object digital signal image pixel size D, inspection object image size L, and image signal acquisition cycle P with use of a time delay integration method as a graph on an operation screen. The user can thus determine a set of values of a pixel size, an inspection image width, and a TDI sensor operation cycle easily with reference to the displayed graph.
