ABSTRACT:
A camera has a case and a taking lens that defines an image plane in the case. A capture member of the camera captures a series of images formed by the taking lens at the image plane. The camera has a viewfinder that displays a viewfinder field aligned with the image plane. The camera has a locator that is switchable between a primary position and a secondary position relative to the viewfinder field. The locator demarcates, in said secondary position, a partition of said viewfinder field into a plurality of areas. The camera has a selector that is switchable among a plurality of capture settings. Each capture setting identifies at least one of a plurality of image modification states. At least one of the capture settings identifies the partition and associates different image modification states with each of the areas.
