ABSTRACT:
Output information such as a moving picture, still image or audio that will cause a person who is the subject of photography to laugh is stored in a digital still camera beforehand. If the output information is selected and a shutter-release button is pressed, the selected information is presented (as by being displayed or output from a speaker) to the person who is the subject. The subject is imaged and the image of the subject is obtained. Image data representing the image of the subject is recorded on a recording medium. The expression on the image of the subject is recognized and stored probabilities that output information will induce laughter are updated depending upon whether or not the subject is laughing. Output information having a high probability of inducing laughter can be presented to the subject.
