ABSTRACT:
An image-capturing device includes: an image-capturing unit that captures a subject image formed via a photographic optical system; a display unit that displays a through image of the subject image captured by the image-capturing unit; an enlargement area setting unit that sets a position of an enlargement area in the through image of the subject image to be displayed in an enlargement at the display unit; and a display control unit that enlarges the subject image corresponding to the enlargement area set by the enlargement area setting unit and brings up the enlarged subject image on display at the display unit, and in response to a change instruction for changing the position of the enlargement area issued by the enlargement area setting unit while the enlarged subject image is on display, the display control unit shifts the enlargement area by sustaining a state of enlarged display of the subject image and displays the subject image corresponding to the shifted enlargement area at the display unit.
