Abstract

A digital camera further includes a compression/multiplex section for providing compressed motion picture data by compressing the respective frames constituting a motion picture in a predetermined operation mode, a communication interface for outputting the compressed motion picture data in an appropriate format, and a picture selection unit which permits a user to select a picture. When the user selects a picture, the compression/multiplex section outputs the selected picture instead of compressed motion picture data.
