PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable a digital still camera and a digital video camera to communicates information via a communication channel, such as internet for easily sending/receiving even if it is urgent information to/from a required opposite party. SOLUTION: Image data which are picked up by a CCD image-pickup element 2 of this camera are stored in a RAM 9, from which the data are, e.g. compressed, and the compressed data are stored in an image memory 3. The image data stored in the image memory 3 in this way are data for, e.g. a disaster or the like that have been photographed and outputted to a communication network such as the internet via a communication interface 21 through a transmission command signal entered via a key entry section 12. ON the other hand, other digital still camera 1 which receives the image data once stores the received image data to the RAM 9 and displays the image of the data on a color display device 5 as required. A system is configured in this way to conduct the transmission reception processing of the image data directly between the digital still camera 1 and the other digital still camera 1.
