Abstract: A digital camera includes a memory card. The memory card is recorded with a plurality of image folders. Each of the image folders accommodates a plurality of image files. A CPU detects each image folder name and the number of image files included in the image folder and assigns a relation between them. If a position number of a desired image file is designated, an image folder having the desired image file is designated based on the position number and the number of image files. Thereafter, the desired image file is specified from among the image files included in the specified image folder based on the position number and the number of files. The specified image file is reproduced from the memory card and a desired image is displayed on an LCD.

Abstract: An image processing method for the adjustment of photographic contrast which utilizes a user interface to display digital image data captured by an image processing apparatus, and allows the user to adjust the set value of the image data and then to store this adjusted value in a parameter setting memory. This enables the apparatus to calculate the contrast characteristics parameter according to the adjusted value, store it in a control parameter memory and to drive a signal converter unit to convert and encode the analog signals transmitted from a image sensing device into digital image data according to the contrast characteristics parameter value stored in the control parameter memory. The apparatus then stores the digital image data thus obtained in an output image memory and transmits the digital image data from the output image memory to the display of the user interface, enabling the contrast value of the imaging system being repeatedly adjusted to obtain the desired contrast in the image.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to identifying photographs to be handed to attendants at a wedding reception, for example. In front of a seat in which the attendant at the wedding reception sits, an Ir light emitting device which transmits a seat code for identifying the attendant is placed. The seat code is received, to record data representing the seat code, and the attendant is photographed, to record image data representing an image of the attendant in correlation with the seat code on a memory card of a digital camera. An attendant file including the seat code and the name of the attendant is previously created. The image of the attendant which is obtained by the photographing, the name of the attendant and so forth are related to each other using the seat code. A print is obtained from a composite image in which the image of the attendant and the name of the attendant is synthesized with a template image. The attendant to which the print is to be handed can be confirmed by seeing the name.

Specifically, a digital electronic still-video camera includes a first memory module circuit and a second memory module circuit controlled by a memory module circuit so as to be placed in active and standby states. When one memory module circuit is in the active state, the other memory module circuit is placed in the standby state, thereby making it possible to reduce power consumption.
