Switching to the third imaging mode occurs by a second flick operation in the right direction in the second imaging mode. Switching to the second imaging mode occurs by a third flick operation in the left direction in the third imaging mode. Switching to the first imaging mode occurs by a fourth flick operation in the left direction in the second imaging mode.
