摘要:
An image processing apparatus provided with a display unit for displaying an operation picture, showing control indicia (e.g., icons) corresponding to multiple image processing functions, is operated to display the operation picture on an external display device. The operator selects one of the indicia shown on the external display device by operating an input device, such as touch screen of the apparatus or a remote control, to indicate the position of the desired one of the indicia. The operator can thereby quickly and reliably select an image processing function to be executed, without any need to view an operation picture on the display unit when making the selection.

A pair of rotation plates 10 are provided on an upper surface and a lower surface of a camera body 30. The rotation plates 10 are rotatable with respect to the camera body 30. During panorama imaging, a user holds the pair of rotation plates 10 with their fingers to hold a camera 9. An actual rotation angle of the camera body 30 with respect to the rotation plate 10 is detected by an encoder provided inside the camera. When the actual rotation angle reaches a target rotation angle, an image capturing process of an element image is automatically executed.

An image playback apparatus and in image recording apparatus are designed to permit image playback from a selected position in an image file recorded to a directly accessible memory, such as a magnetic disk. During recording of an image file, the user can designate one or more candidate playback start positions in the file, and corresponding pointers are stored as part of the image file. When the file is to be played back, the playback apparatus accesses the pointer(s) and allows the user to select playback from the corresponding position(s) in the image file. Also the playback apparatus can rewrite pointers in an image file, whereby the user can designate candidate starting positions for future playback of the file.

In an electric potential generating device, a source of an N type MIS transistor is mutually connected to that of a P type MIS transistor and also connected to an output terminal. A drain of an N type MIS transistor 54 is connected to a power supply voltage supply portion for supplying power supply voltage VDD, and a drain of the P type MIS transistor is connected to a ground. In addition, a substrate potential of the N type MIS transistor is a ground voltage VSS, and that of a P type MIS transistor 56 is the power supply voltage VDD. Thus, it is constituted as a source follower circuit for taking output out of the source. It is possible, by utilizing this electric potential generating device, to obtain a logic transformation circuit for stably switching between NOR operation and NAND operation.

A heterojunction bipolar transistor is fabricated by stacking a Si collector layer, a SiGeC base layer and a Si emitter layer in this order. By making the amount of a lattice strain in the SiGeC base layer on the Si collector layer 1.0% or less, the band gap can be narrower than the band gap of the conventional practical SiGe (the Ge content is about 10%), and good crystalline can be maintained after a heat treatment. As a result, a narrow band gap base with no practical inconvenience can be realized.

A chopper type voltage comparison circuit is disclosed which restrain leakage current between an input and output nodes of each amplifying circuit to enable normal voltage comparisons even if a threshold voltage for each transistor is reduced to diminish a power supply voltage. This chopper type voltage comparison circuit comprises a capacitor C1 having an input voltage or a reference voltage selectively supplied to one end thereof depending on whether a voltage input operation or a voltage comparison operation is to be performed, a CMOS clocked inverter circuit CINV1 for voltage amplification having a voltage at the other end of the capacitor input to an input node thereof and having a clock gate section biased so as to be constantly conductive, and a CMOS clocked inverter circuit CINV4 for input voltage setting having the same circuit configuration as the CMOS clocked inverter circuit for voltage amplification, having an input and output nodes short-circuited thereto, and connected to the input node of the CMOS clocked inverter circuit for voltage amplification so that the clock gate section is switch-controlled to be turned on for the voltage input operation, while the clock gate section is switch-controlled to be turned off for the voltage comparison operation.
