ABSTRACT:
A mobile phone provided with lighting devices capable of capturing not only a still image but also a moving image in the dark. When a user sets the lighting of a light emitting section to ON at the time of capturing an image, the light emitting section is controlled so as to illuminate a subject for the most suitable time for capturing the image regardless of capturing a still image or moving image. Accordingly, it becomes possible to capture an image in the dark successfully. Moreover, the mobile phone can be used as a flashlight by continuously turning on the light emitting section that would be used when capturing an image. Accordingly, the mobile phone may be used for lighting when finding a keyhole, searching for something, etc. in the dark.
