Abstract
Cameras capture images of different regions in the surroundings of a vehicle, and plural captured images are displayed on a monitor. An operation section includes a four-way switch enabling input to instruct a movement direction of a range to display as an image on the monitor, and a selection switch enabling input to designate a target image out of the plural images. An electronic mirror switches between a mode in which an image display on the monitor is modified under a first operation condition in which the four-way switch has been operated in a state in which the target image has not been designated through the selection switch, and a mode in which an image display on the monitor is modified under a second operation condition in which the four-way switch has been operated in a state in which the target image has been designated through the selection switch.
