1. A digital camera comprising:
- a single composite image quality indicator configured to represent a plurality of image quality parameters based on an image,wherein the composite image quality indicator is generated based on data associated with the plurality of image quality parameters,wherein the single composite image quality indicator comprises a plurality of portions, each portion of the plurality of portions configurable between a first state and a second state, andwherein a number of indicator portions displayed in the second state corresponds to a number of image quality parameters that are determined to be stable;
anda display for displaying the image together with the single composite image quality indicator, wherein the plurality of portions are displayed simultaneously.

Abstract
A digital camera is incorporated into a mobile telephone handset. An image window, used as a viewfinder, includes an indicator in the form of a three-part bar for showing whether an optimal image can be captured. Exposure, white balance and dark reference are determined using algorithms executed by the handset.
