ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a digital still camera in which focusing can be checked easily even if a display device constituting the viewfinder is comparatively small. When a shutter-release button is pressed half-way, focusing is performed and the image in a focusing zone is made larger than the part of an angle-of-view confirmation image that corresponds to the focusing zone. An in-focus confirmation image of the enlarged focusing zone is displayed on the display screen of the viewfinder. When focusing is performed, the in-focus confirmation image is enlarged in comparison with the corresponding area of the angle-of-view confirmation image. This makes it easier to determine whether an image is in focus or not.
