1. A digital still camera, comprising: an image-capturing unit which captures a subject to generate a captured image; a selecting unit which decides whether a date on which the capturing is done is to be written onto the captured image generated by the image-capturing unit; a writing unit which writes an image of the date when the selecting unit decides that the date is to be written; an inputting unit which collectively accepts a print-order to print the date with each captured image of a plurality of captured images captured by the image-capturing unit based on a single user operation; a creating unit which creates print-order information for each of the plurality of the captured images according to the print-order accepted by the inputting unit; a determining unit which sequentially determines whether each of the plurality of the captured images, having accepted the print-order, has thereon the date written by the writing unit, when the creating unit creates the print-order information for the captured image; a changing unit which deletes from the print-order information the date for each of the captured images being determined by the determining unit as having the date written thereon and having the print-order information including the date of the capturing; and a recording unit which records the captured image and the print-order information, associating them with each other.
