IMAGE PICKUP APPARATUS
First Claim
1. An image pickup apparatus comprising:
- an inclination detector which detects an inclination of the image pickup apparatus;
a display device capable of showing an inclination guide display corresponding to a detection output from the inclination detector;
a shake detector which detects a shake of the image pickup apparatus; and
a display controller which controls display of the inclination guide display based on the detection output from the shake detector.

Abstract
An image pickup apparatus is disclosed which provides an appropriate inclination guide display in accordance with an aspect ratio of a picked-up image and the like. The image pickup apparatus includes an inclination detector which detects an inclination of the image pickup apparatus, a display device capable of superimposedly showing an inclination guide display corresponding to a detection output from the inclination detector, on a picked-up image, and an aspect ratio setter which sets the aspect ratio of a picked-up image. The apparatus includes a display controller which controls whether or not to show the inclination guide display on the display device on the basis of the aspect ratio set by the aspect ratio setter.

6. An image pickup apparatus comprising:
-
a display device which displays a picked-up image; an inclination detector which detects an inclination of the image pickup apparatus; a display processor which shows an inclination guide display corresponding to the inclination detected by the inclination detector, on the display device; a shake detector which detects a shake of the image pickup apparatus; a determiner which determines, based on the detection output from the shake detector, whether or not the image pickup apparatus is fixed; and a setter which sets sensitivity of the inclination detector so that, when determination that the image pickup apparatus is fixed is made by the determiner, the sensitivity of the inclination is higher than that when determination that the image pickup apparatus is not fixed is made by the determiner. - View Dependent Claims (7)
