Abstract:
This invention relates to an imaging apparatus and an imaging method for supplying an optimum amount of image data to another apparatus. When a PDA 91 has a maximum transfer rate of 1.5 Mbps, a mobile phone 1 determines that a maximum speed of communication with the PDA 91 is low, reduces accordingly the amount of moving image data captured by a CCD of the mobile phone, and supplies the captured moving image data to the PDA 91. The PDA 91 displays a low-quality moving image 93 on its display unit. When the PDA 91 has a maximum transfer rate of 480 Mbps, the CPU of the mobile phone leaves unchanged the amount of moving picture data captured by the CCD and supplies the captured moving image data to the PDA 91. The PDA 91 then displays a high-quality moving image 94 on the display unit. This invention applies advantageously to digital cameras.

Abstract:
An imaging apparatus and an imaging method supply an optimum amount of image data to another apparatus. When a PDA has a maximum transfer rate of 1.5 Mbps, a mobile phone determines that the maximum speed of communication with the PDA is low, reduces the amount of moving image data captured by a CCD of the mobile phone accordingly, and supplies the captured moving image data to the PDA. The PDA therefore displays a low-quality moving image on its display unit. When the PDA has a maximum transfer rate of 480 Mbps, the CPU of the mobile phone leaves unchanged the amount of moving picture data captured by the CCD and supplies the captured moving image data to the PDA. The PDA then displays a high-quality moving image on its display unit. The foregoing may be advantageously applied to digital cameras.
Abstract:
A video is recorded on a recording medium so that a reproducing apparatus can faithfully reproduce an original color of the recorded video. An sRGB color space or an extended sRGB color space is specified as the color space of the video to be recorded. A signal processing unit generates a video signal corresponding to the specified color space. An encoding/decoding unit compresses the video signal in accordance with the MPEG4-AVC standard to generate a compressed video signal. A CPU generates a color space identifier including information indicating the color space specified and is configured so that an access unit including an SPS NAL unit in the compressed video signal includes an SEI NAL unit in which the color space identifier is stored. The video recorded on the recording medium includes the color space identifier having information for a color space of that video.
Abstract:
Disclosed herein is a picture An image display controlling apparatus capable of improving the user's ease of operation upon selecting picture allows a navigation of image data items on a small-size screen of digital cameras or the like an image capturing device. Picture The image data items held in a data holding unit (310) are sorted into picture image data groups. The location of the picture image data item most recently displayed from any of the picture groups a selected image data group is held as in a picture resume pointer in a resume pointer holding unit (320). With an operation input accepted from the user by an operation inputting device (340) unit, a display controlling unit (390) causes a displaying unit (350) to display the picture designated image selected by the operation input while effecting transition from the current display status retained in a status holding unit (330). If the operation input designates transition from a first picture group to a second picture group, the location of the picture data item currently displayed from the first picture group is placed into the resume pointer holding unit (320), and the location of the picture data item to be displayed anew from the second picture group is retrieved from the resume pointer holding unit (320). When the operating inputting unit receives a re-selection of the selected image data group after an intervening selection of another image data group, the display image controlling unit displays the image data item.
