In an electronic camera, captured images are refreshed at a high refresh rate in a normal image-capturing mode and at AE/AF, and an image with many pixels is captured in a macro image-capturing mode and a mode for outputting an image signal to an external monitor. In the normal image-capturing mode and at the AE/AF, a solid-state imaging device is driven by reading signals from ¼ or 1/8 of the photoelectric elements in a vertical direction. In this case, a slightly rough image is obtained at a high refresh rate and with a small amount of electricity. In the macro image-capturing mode and the mode for outputting the image signal to the external equipment, the solid-state imaging device is driven by reading signals from ½ of the photoelectric elements or all the photoelectric elements automatically. Consequently, an image with many pixels is obtained. A focus can be precisely confirmed in the macro image-capturing mode, and a precise image can be displayed on the external monitor with a large screen.
