A digital camera comprises a CCD, sample-and-hold circuit, analog to digital converter, color processing circuit, microphone, voice processing section, flash memory in which voices input from the microphone are arbitrarily added to still images and the still image data with the voice data is recorded, a key input section which selects an arbitrary still image among the still images recorded in the flash memory, and a CPU which discriminates whether or not voices are added to selected still-images. A message for alarming is displayed on a display section when the voices are added to the images.
