1. A display apparatus for a moving image comprising:
- a display panel for displaying an image thereon on receipt of an image signal;
storing means for storing information about a moving image, to be displayed on the display panel, therein;
signal supplying means for outputting the information stored in the storing means to the display panel as the image signal;
distance detecting means for detecting a distance between the display panel and an image viewer; and
controlling means for controlling the output signal of the signal supplying means so that a moving image is displayed on the display panel when the distance detected by the distance detecting means is equal to or longer than a predetermined distance and that a stationary image is displayed on the display panel when the distance detected by the distance detecting means is shorter than the predetermined distance.

Abstract
A distance sensor for detecting the distance between a display panel and an image viewer is provided on a display apparatus. An image signal supplied to the display panel is controlled based on the distance detected by the distance sensor to make a changeover between an enlarged image and a reduced image or between scrolling and stopping of a text or between moving and stationary display of a moving image. The speed of the scrolling and the speed of the moving display are stepwisely set according to the detected distance.
