Abstract
The present invention relates to an image capturing apparatus, a display control method, and a program enabling a user to intuitively understand all set values selectable as setting about shooting and an operation to select a desired set value.
Upon press of a toggle button, an image 51 representing “macro mode” (set value), which is a closeup shooting mode, an image 52 representing “magnifying glass mode” (set value), and an image 53 representing OFF (set value) of the closeup shooting mode are displayed while being arranged in the order of being highlighted by each press of the toggle button. An outline arrow indicating the order of being highlighted by each press of the toggle button is displayed between the respective images 51 to 53. If the toggle button is pressed once by a user, display positions of all the images are changed, and the highlighted image is changed accordingly. The present invention can be applied to an apparatus having an image capturing function.
