     BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 
     1. Field of the Invention 
     The present invention relates to a printer-equipped camera and a displaying control method thereof and particularly, to a printer-equipped camera that prints an image using an instant film, and a displaying control method thereof. 
     2. Description of the Related Art 
     A printer-equipped camera that incorporates a printer in a camera body and can instantly print a captured image on a medium has been known. 
     JP2001-045342A discloses that a printer-equipped camera that prints an image using an instant film incorporates an exposure display in a camera body and exposes a surface of the instant film using the exposure display. 
     SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION 
     In a case where the surface of the instant film is exposed using the display as in the printer-equipped camera disclosed in JP2001-045342A, light from each pixel of the display is diffused, thereby posing a defect of blurriness of the printed image. 
     The present invention is conceived in view of such a matter, and an object thereof is to provide a printer-equipped camera and a displaying control method thereof capable of printing a high quality image. 
     A printer-equipped camera of a first aspect comprises an instant film pack loading unit in which an instant film pack including an exposure opening is loaded, a first displaying unit of which a displaying surface is arranged to face an exposure surface of an instant film in the instant film pack through the exposure opening with respect to the instant film pack loaded in the instant film pack loading unit, and that exposes the instant film by displaying an image, a light exit direction restriction member that is included on the displaying surface of the first displaying unit and restricts a light exit direction of light from each pixel of the first displaying unit to a constant range, an imaging unit that electronically captures a subject image, a second displaying unit that displays an image to an outside, a print instruction unit that provides a print instruction for the image displayed on the second displaying unit, and a displaying control unit that exposes the exposure surface of the instant film by displaying the image on the first displaying unit, in a case where the print instruction is provided by the print instruction unit. 
     According to the first aspect, the instant film is exposed through the light exit direction restriction member by providing the print instruction for the image displayed on the second displaying unit and displaying the image on the first displaying unit. Accordingly, blurriness of an image to be recorded can be prevented, and a high quality image can be printed. 
     The printer-equipped camera of a second aspect further comprises an image processing unit that processes the image to be displayed on the first displaying unit, in which in a case of exposing the instant film, the displaying control unit exposes the exposure surface of the instant film by displaying, on the first displaying unit, an image that is different from the image captured by the imaging unit and displayed on the second displaying unit by performing image processing by the image processing unit. According to the second aspect, an image appropriate for exposure of the instant film can be exposed. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a third aspect, the displaying control unit exposes the exposure surface of the instant film by displaying, on the first displaying unit, an image on which edge highlighting processing is performed by the image processing unit, compared to the image of the second displaying unit. According to the third aspect, blurriness caused by diffusion of light transmitted through the light exit direction restriction member can be suppressed. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a fourth aspect, the image processing unit performs the edge highlighting processing using unsharp mask processing as the edge highlighting processing. According to the fourth aspect, a difference in density of a high-frequency component can be highlighted by the unsharp mask processing. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a fifth aspect, the displaying control unit displays, on the first displaying unit, an image subjected to the unsharp mask processing, which is weighted in accordance with resolution of the first displaying unit, by the image processing unit, compared to the image of the second displaying unit. According to the fifth aspect, the unsharp mask processing weighted in accordance with the resolution can be performed. 
     The printer-equipped camera of a sixth aspect further comprises a film forwarding mechanism that forwards the instant film after exposure in a case where the print instruction is provided by the print instruction unit, and a film transport mechanism that discharges the instant film forwarded by the film forwarding mechanism while developing the instant film. According to the sixth aspect, the instant film can be forwarded and transported while being developed. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a seventh aspect, the displaying control unit displays, on the first displaying unit, an image obtained by inverting the image displayed on the second displaying unit by the image processing unit. According to the seventh aspect, inversion processing can be performed as image processing. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of an eighth aspect, the displaying control unit controls displaying of the first displaying unit and the second displaying unit and switches OFF displaying of the second displaying unit while the instant film is exposed by displaying the image on the first displaying unit. According to the eighth aspect, displaying of the second displaying unit is switched OFF during exposure. Accordingly, a peak value of power can be reduced, and a power load can be reduced. 
     The printer-equipped camera of a ninth aspect further comprises an imaging control unit that controls ON and OFF of the imaging unit, in which the imaging control unit switches OFF the imaging unit during displaying of the image on the first displaying unit. According to the ninth aspect, the imaging unit is switched OFF during exposure. Accordingly, the peak value of power can be more effectively reduced, and the power load can be reduced. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a tenth aspect, the imaging control unit permits imaging even before the instant film pack is loaded in the instant film pack loading unit, or even in a case where an instant film before exposure is not present in the instant film pack. According to the tenth aspect, a captured image is stored even in a case where an instant film that can be exposed is not present. 
     The printer-equipped camera of an eleventh aspect further comprises a mode switching unit that switches between an imaging mode and a playback mode, in which in a case where the imaging mode is set, the displaying control unit displays a captured image on the second displaying unit as an image of a print target, and in a case where the playback mode is set, the displaying control unit displays an image stored in an image storage unit on the second displaying unit as the image of the print target. 
     According to the eleventh aspect, the captured image can be displayed on the second displaying unit by setting the imaging mode. In addition, the image stored in the image storage unit can be displayed on the second displaying unit by setting the playback mode. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a twelfth aspect, the displaying control unit displays information related to imaging on the second displaying unit. According to the twelfth aspect, imaging of a user can be assisted. 
     The printer-equipped camera of a thirteenth aspect further comprises a touch operation detection unit that detects a touch operation performed on a displaying surface of the second displaying unit. According to the thirteenth aspect, the touch operation detection unit is comprised on the displaying surface of the second displaying unit. 
     In the printer-equipped camera of a fourteenth aspect, the light exit direction restriction member is a louver member or a porous plate. According to the fourteenth aspect, the light exit direction restriction member is configured with the louver member or the porous plate. 
     A displaying control method of a printer-equipped camera of a fifteenth aspect is a displaying control method of a printer-equipped camera including a first displaying unit that includes, on a displaying surface, a light exit direction restriction member restricting a light exit direction of light from each pixel to a constant range and exposes a surface of an instant film by displaying an image, and a second displaying unit that displays an image to an outside, the displaying control method comprising exposing the instant film by displaying the image on the first displaying unit by providing a print instruction for the image displayed on the second displaying unit. 
     According to the fifteenth aspect, the instant film is exposed through the light exit direction restriction member by providing the print instruction for the image displayed on the second displaying unit and displaying the image on the first displaying unit. Accordingly, blurriness of an image to be recorded can be prevented, and a high quality image can be printed. 
     In the displaying control method of the printer-equipped camera of a sixteenth aspect, the instant film is exposed by displaying, on the first displaying unit, an image obtained by performing image processing on the image displayed on the second displaying unit. 
     According to the sixteenth aspect, an image appropriate for exposure can be exposed on the instant film. 
     According to the present invention, a printer-equipped camera and a displaying control method thereof capable of printing a high quality image can be provided.

The exposure liquid crystal display  58  is configured with a transmissive color liquid crystal display. The exposure backlight  60  evenly irradiates an entire surface of a display region of the exposure liquid crystal display  58  with light from a rear of the exposure liquid crystal display  58 . The exposure backlight  60  comprises a rod-shaped lamp  60   a  that is a light source, and a light guide plate  60   b  that evenly guides light exiting from the rod-shaped lamp  60   a  to the entire surface of the display region of the exposure liquid crystal display  58 . 
     A louver member  62  is comprised on the displaying surface  56   a  of the exposure display  56 . The louver member  62  restricts a light exit direction of light from each pixel of the exposure display  56  to a constant range. The louver member  62  is one example of a light exit direction restriction member. The louver member  62  has a thin plate shape that is an exterior shape corresponding to the exposure opening  120   a  of the instant film pack  100 . 
     The louver member  62  is arranged at a position that fits in the exposure opening  120   a  in a case where the instant film pack  100  is loaded in the film loading chamber  50 . The louver member  62  is oppositely arranged to be spaced from the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110  accommodated in the case  120 . 
     A plurality of pixels of the exposure display  56  are two-dimensionally arranged in the x direction and the y direction. Considering recording on the instant film, a pixel pitch (distance between adjacent pixels) of the exposure display  56  is preferably less than or equal to 200 μm. In order to obtain a more favorable image, the pixel pitch is preferably less than or equal to 150 μm, more preferably less than or equal to 125 μm, and still more preferably less than or equal to 85 μm. 
     The louver member  62 , like the exposure display  56 , has a size in which the instant film  110  can be exposed in one exposure. Accordingly, the louver member  62  has a size that is greater than at least the observation region  118  of the instant film  110 . The louver member  62  may be smaller than the exposure region  112  or greater than the exposure region  112 , provided that the louver member  62  has a size greater than the observation region  118 . 
       FIG. 11  is a perspective view illustrating a size relationship between the louver member  62  and the instant film pack  100 . As illustrated in  FIG. 11 , the louver member  62  has a size that fits in the exposure opening  120   a  of the case  120  of the instant film pack  100 . The louver member  62  is arranged at a position away from a movement trajectory M, indicated by an arrow, of the claw  52   a  discharging the instant film  110  from the instant film pack  100 . The claw  52   a  can discharge the instant film  110  from the instant film pack  100  without being obstructed by the louver member  62 . 
       FIG. 12  is an enlarged cross-sectional view of a part of the louver member.  FIG. 13  is an enlarged front view of a part of the louver member. The light exit direction restriction member illustrated in  FIG. 12  and  FIG. 13  is configured with the louver member  62  having a single layer structure. 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 12 , the louver member  62  includes two opposite main surfaces. One main surface constitutes an incidence surface  62   a , and the other main surface constitutes an exit surface  62   b . The incidence surface  62   a  is a surface that is arranged to face the displaying surface  56   a  of the exposure display  56 , and the exit surface  62   b  is a surface that is arranged to face the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110 . 
     The louver member  62  has a function of restricting the light exit direction of the light from each pixel of the exposure display  56  to the constant range. A shape of the louver member  62  is not limited, provided that the louver member  62  has such a function. For example, the louver member  62  may have a film shape having flexibility or a plate shape having stiffness. 
     A protective film  66  is comprised on an exit surface  62   b  side of the louver member  62  as a protective member. 
     The protective film  66  causes the louver member  62  and the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110  to be spaced by a constant distance S. The distance S is the same as a thickness of the protective film  66 . 
     The louver member  62  is configured with a light blocking portion  64  having a lattice form and a light transmitting portion  65  divided by the light blocking portion  64 . The light blocking portion  64  having a lattice form is configured with a plurality of first light blocking portions  64   a  that extend in the x direction (first direction) and are arranged to be spaced in the y direction (second direction), and a plurality of second light blocking portions  64   b  that extend in the y direction (second direction) and are arranged to be spaced in the x direction (first direction). The light blocking portion  64  may be a light absorbent member that absorbs light, or can be a light reflective member that reflects light. A colored resin material can be used as a material constituting the light blocking portion  64 . For example, black silicone rubber can be used. 
     A neutral density filter (ND filter) can be used as the material absorbing light. The ND filter means a filter having a neutral optical density and is a filter that can evenly absorb (absorbance is greater than or equal to 50% and less than or equal to 99.999%; transmittance is greater than or equal to 0.001% and less than or equal to 50%) light without affecting a wavelength in a wavelength range used for exposure. 
     The light blocking portion  64  has a wall surface that is perpendicular to the incidence surface  62   a  and the exit surface  62   b . The light transmitting portion  65  is configured with a material (for example, glass or transparent silicone rubber) having a light transmitting property and constitutes an optical path that is perpendicular to the incidence surface  62   a  and the exit surface  62   b  of the louver member  62 . 
     The protective film  66  is a member (protective member) that protects the louver member  62 . The protective member is configured with a material (for example, acrylic resin, polycarbonate, or vinyl chloride resin) having a light transmitting property. 
     While glass as a protective member is generally comprised on a displaying surface of a flat panel display such as a liquid crystal display, a protective member having a small thickness is preferably used in a displaying device used in the exposure display  56  in order to decrease a distance from each pixel to the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110 . 
     The protective member may not be necessary but is preferably comprised in order to protect the louver member  62  that is the light exit direction restriction member. 
     A thickness of the protective member is preferably greater than or equal to 0.1 μm and less than or equal to 500 μm. In a case where the thickness of the protective member is greater than or equal to 0.1 μm, not only an effect of protecting the light exit direction restriction member but also an effect of preventing moire from standing out is achieved. In addition, an effect of preventing a defect of an image caused based on a defect or a structure of the light exit direction restriction member from standing out is achieved. In a case where the thickness of the protective member is less than or equal to 500 μm, blurriness of a recording image can be prevented. 
     The louver member  62  having the above configuration selectively allows transmission of only light that is incident approximately perpendicularly to the incidence surface  62   a . In the exposure display  56 , since the louver member  62  is comprised on the displaying surface  56   a , a light exit direction of light from each pixel Pix is restricted to a direction that is approximately perpendicular to the displaying surface  56   a . Accordingly, the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110  can be approximately perpendicularly irradiated with light of each pixel Pix, and blurring of the image to be recorded can be suppressed. That is, blurriness of the image to be recorded can be prevented. 
     The louver member  62  is spaced from the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110 . This spacing permits diffusion of light exiting from the exit surface  62   b . This diffusion of light suppresses formation of a non-exposed region on the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110  due to the light blocking portion  64  (light blocking portion  64  casting a shadow). In  FIG. 12 , the louver member  62  and the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110  are spaced by the protective film  66 . However, regardless of presence or absence of the protective film  66 , the louver member  62  and the exposure surface  110   a  of the instant film  110  are only required to be fixed at spaced positions. 
     A thickness of the louver member  62  is preferably greater than or equal to 1.5 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm. The thickness is more preferably greater than or equal to 2.0 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm and still more preferably greater than or equal to 2.5 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm. The light exit direction can be more effectively restricted by increasing the thickness of the louver member  62 . Meanwhile, in a case where the thickness of the louver member  62  is increased, the recording image is likely to be blurred. Accordingly, the louver member  62  is preferably configured within the above range of thickness. 
     A pitch (louver pitch) of the light blocking portion  64  is preferably less than or equal to 80 μm and more preferably less than or equal to 65 μm. As illustrated in the enlarged view of  FIG. 13 , the pitch (louver pitch) is a distance between adjacent light blocking portions  64 . By setting the pitch within the above range, light from each pixel Pix of the exposure display  56  in an inclined direction can be appropriately blocked, and a high quality image can be recorded on the instant film. 
       FIG. 14  illustrates another configuration of the light exit direction restriction member. The light exit direction restriction member has a structure in which a first louver member  150  and a second louver member  170  are stacked. Reference sign  14 A denotes a flat surface of the first louver member  150 . Reference sign  14 B denotes a flat surface of the second louver member  170 . 
     As illustrated in the flat surface  14 A, in the first louver member  150 , a plurality of first light blocking portions  152  and a plurality of first light transmitting portions  154  extending in the x direction (first direction) are alternately arranged in the y direction (second direction). A pitch (louver pitch) of the first louver member  150  is preferably less than or equal to 80 μm. Here, the x direction (first direction) is defined as a direction in which the first louver member  150  extends. 
     As illustrated in the flat surface  14 B, in the second louver member  170 , a plurality of second light blocking portions  172  and a plurality of second light transmitting portions  174  extending in the y direction (second direction) are alternately arranged in the x direction (first direction). A pitch (louver pitch) of the second louver member  170  is preferably less than or equal to 80 μm. Here, the y direction (second direction) is defined as a direction in which the second louver member  170  extends. 
     As indicated by reference sign  14 C, a stack  140  of the first louver member  150  and the second louver member  170  constitutes the light exit direction restriction member. A thickness t of the stack  140  is preferably greater than or equal to 1.5 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm. The thickness is more preferably greater than or equal to 2.0 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm and still more preferably greater than or equal to 2.5 mm and less than or equal to 4.0 mm. In a case where the stack is configured with a plurality of louver members, the thickness is a total thickness of the louver members, that is, a thickness of the stack. 
     The first louver member  150  is arranged in contact with the second louver member  170 , and the second louver member  170  is arranged to be spaced from the exposure surface  110   a  (not illustrated) of the instant film  110 . 
     In  FIG. 14 , the direction in which the first louver member  150  extends is the x direction (first direction), and the direction in which the second louver member  170  extends is the y direction (second direction). Alternatively, the direction in which the first louver member  150  extends can be the y direction (second direction), and the direction in which the second louver member  170  extends can be the x direction (first direction). 
       FIG. 15  is a front view of the stack  140  seen from the first louver member. A light blocking portion  142  of the stack  140  is configured with the plurality of first light blocking portions  152  and the plurality of second light blocking portions  172  by stacking the first louver member  150  and the second louver member  170 . A region surrounded by the light blocking portion  142  is a light transmitting portion  144  of the stack  140 . 
     As illustrated in the enlarged view, an angle θ at which the direction in which the first louver member  150  extends intersects with the direction in which the second louver member  170  extends is 90 degrees. 
       FIG. 16  is a partial enlarged view illustrating another form of the stack. As illustrated in  FIG. 16 , in the stack  140 , the light blocking portion  142  of the stack  140  is configured with the plurality of first light blocking portions  152  of the first louver member  150  (not illustrated) and the plurality of second light blocking portions  172  of the second louver member  170  (not illustrated). A region surrounded by the light blocking portion  142  is a light transmitting portion  144  of the stack  140 . 
     In  FIG. 16 , the angle θ at which the direction (x direction (first direction)) in which the first louver member  150  extends intersects with the direction (y direction (second direction)) in which the second louver member  170  extends is less than 90°. The angle θ of intersection is preferably greater than or equal to 70 degrees and less than or equal to 90 degrees. Using this range can suppress moire. 
     A difference in angle can also be present between a direction in which the louver member  62  or the stack  140  extends, and the x direction and the y direction that are arrangement standards in a case of two-dimensionally arranging the pixels of the exposure display  56 . The difference in angle can effectively suppress occurrence of moire. For example, in a case of the stack  140 , an angle formed between the direction in which the first louver member  150  extends, and the x direction as the arrangement standard of the pixels is preferably greater than 0 degrees and less than 90 degrees, more preferably greater than or equal to 1 degree and less than or equal to 89 degrees, still more preferably greater than or equal to 10 degrees and less than or equal to 80 degrees, and further more preferably greater than or equal to 20 degrees and less than or equal to 70 degrees. 
     &lt;Image Displaying Display&gt; 
     The image displaying display  16  is a display that displays the image to an outside, and is configured with a touch panel display. As illustrated in  FIG. 10 , the image displaying display  16  comprises an image displaying liquid crystal display  68 , an image displaying backlight  70 , and a touch sensor  72 . The image displaying liquid crystal display  68  is configured with a transmissive color liquid crystal display. The image displaying backlight  70  evenly irradiates an entire surface of a display region of the image displaying liquid crystal display  68  with light from a rear of the image displaying liquid crystal display  68 . The image displaying backlight  70  comprises a rod-shaped lamp  70   a  that is a white light source, and a light guide plate  70   b  that evenly guides light exiting from the rod-shaped lamp  70   a  to the entire surface of the display region of the image displaying liquid crystal display  68 . The touch sensor  72  is comprised on a displaying surface  16   a  of the image displaying display  16 . The touch sensor  72  is one example of a touch operation detection unit. The touch sensor  72  detects a touch operation performed on the displaying surface  16   a  of the image displaying display  16 . 
     As illustrated in  FIG. 6  and  FIG. 10 , the image displaying display  16  is arranged to be stacked on the exposure display  56 . A light blocking wall  74  is comprised between the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56 . The light blocking wall  74  is one example of a light blocking member and prevents light of the backlight of one from leaking to the display region of the other. Accordingly, exposure of the instant film  110  due to light of the image displaying backlight  70  leaking to an exposure display  56  side can be prevented. 
     The number of pixels of the exposure display  56  can be different from the number of pixels of the image displaying display  16 . For example, the number of pixels of the exposure display  56  is preferably larger than the number of pixels of the image displaying display  16 . The exposure display  56  having a larger number of pixels enables a high quality image to be printed on the instant film  110 . 
     Brightness of the exposure display  56  can be different from brightness of the image displaying display  16 . For example, the brightness of the exposure display  56  is preferably higher than the brightness of the image displaying display  16 . Light from the exposure display  56  is attenuated by the louver member  62 . Increasing the brightness of the exposure display  56  can resolve insufficient exposure of the instant film  110 . 
     [Electric Configuration] 
       FIG. 17  is a block diagram illustrating an electric configuration of the printer-equipped digital camera. 
     As illustrated in the drawing, the printer-equipped camera  1  comprises a microcomputer (microcontroller)  80  comprising a central processing unit (CPU), a read only memory (ROM), and a random access memory (RAM). Driving of each unit is controlled by the microcomputer  80 . That is, the microcomputer  80  controls driving of the imaging lens  12 , the image sensor  42 , the film forwarding mechanism  52 , the film transport mechanism  54 , and the like. The microcomputer  80  controls each unit based on an operation input from an operation unit  92 . The operation unit  92  is configured with the power button  18  and the touch sensor  72 . The microcomputer  80  implements various control functions by executing a predetermined control program. 
     The printer-equipped camera  1  comprises an analog signal processing unit  82 , a digital signal processing unit  84 , a print image processing unit  86 , a memory  88 , a memory controller  88   a , and a displaying controller  90 . 
     The analog signal processing unit  82  fetches an analog image signal of each pixel output from the image sensor  42  and performs a predetermined type of signal processing (for example, correlative double sampling processing or amplification processing) on the analog signal. The analog signal processing unit  82  includes an analog to digital converter/AD converter (ADC), and transforms the analog image signal after the predetermined type of signal processing into a digital image signal and outputs the digital image signal. 
     The digital signal processing unit  84  fetches the digital image signal output from the analog signal processing unit  82  and generates image data by performing a predetermined type of signal processing (for example, gradation transformation processing, white balance correction processing, gamma-correction processing, demosaicing, or YC transformation processing) on the digital image signal. The generated image data is output to the microcomputer  80 . 
     The print image processing unit  86  generates print image data by performing a predetermined type of image processing on the image data to be printed, under control of the microcomputer  80 . That is, image data to be displayed on the exposure display  56  is generated. This image data is image data that is optimized for exposure of the instant film  110 . Consequently, the displaying controller  90  can display, on the exposure display  56 , an image different from the image displayed on the image displaying display  16 . 
     In the printer-equipped camera  1  of the present embodiment, since the instant film  110  of the mono-sheet type is used, left-right inversion processing of the image is performed as a part of image processing. In addition, since the instant film  110  is loaded upside down (a top and a bottom are reversed) in the printer-equipped camera  1 , up-down inversion processing is performed. 
       FIG. 18  is a conceptual diagram of generation of the print image. 
     In the drawing, (A) is an image represented by image data of a print target, and (B) is an image represented by the print image data. As illustrated in the drawing, the print image is an up-down and left-right inverted image of the original image. 
     The memory  88  stores various types of data including the image data. The memory  88  is configured with a non-volatile memory such as an electrically erasable programmable read only memory (EEPROM). The memory controller  88   a  reads and writes data in the memory  88  under control of the microcomputer  80 . 
     The displaying controller  90  displays the images on the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  under control of the microcomputer  80 . For example, the displaying controller  90  is configured with large scale integration (LSI). 
       FIG. 19  is a block diagram of functions of the displaying controller. 
     In a case of displaying the image on the image displaying display  16 , the displaying controller  90  outputs displaying data to the image displaying liquid crystal display  68  and turns ON the image displaying backlight  70 . In a case of displaying the image on the exposure display  56 , the displaying controller  90  outputs the displaying data to the exposure liquid crystal display  58  and turns ON the exposure backlight  60 . 
     The microcomputer  80  functions as a displaying control unit  80   a  by executing a predetermined displaying control program and controls displaying of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  through the displaying controller  90 . 
     In a case where a mode of the printer-equipped camera  1  is set to an imaging mode, the displaying control unit  80   a  displays an image captured by the image sensor  42  on the image displaying display  16  in real time. That is, a live view image is displayed on the image displaying display  16 . In addition, an operation button (shutter button or the like) necessary for imaging is displayed on the image displaying display  16 . Furthermore, as necessary, information (an F number, a shutter speed, the number of imageable sheets, or the like) related to imaging is displayed on the image displaying display  16 . 
     In a case where the mode of the printer-equipped camera  1  is set to a playback mode, the displaying control unit  80   a  displays, on the image displaying display  16 , image data that is recorded in the memory  88  functioning as an image storage unit. 
     Furthermore, the displaying control unit  80   a  displays a setting screen for performing various types of setting on the image displaying display  16  in accordance with a call for the setting screen. 
     In a case of printing the image, the print image is displayed on the exposure display  56 . The displaying control unit  80   a  switches OFF displaying of the image displaying display  16 . 
     [Effect of Printer-Equipped Digital Camera] 
     &lt;Imaging&gt; 
     In a case where the printer-equipped camera  1  is powered ON, the printer-equipped camera  1  is started in the imaging mode. In the imaging mode, the image captured by the image sensor  42  is displayed on the image displaying display  16  in real time. That is, the live view image is displayed on the image displaying display  16 . A user checks adjustment of composition, a state of focusing on a main subject, and the like using the image displaying display  16  as a finder. 
       FIG. 20  is a diagram illustrating one example of displaying of the image displaying display in the imaging mode. 
     As illustrated in the drawing, the image displaying display  16  displays a live view image LI and various operation buttons. In the example illustrated in  FIG. 20 , a case where a shutter button SB, a playback button PB, and a menu button MB are displayed as the operation buttons is illustrated. The shutter button SB is a button for providing an instruction to record (capture) the image. The playback button PB is a button for providing an instruction to switch to the playback mode and constitutes a mode switching unit. The menu button MB is a button for providing an instruction to display a menu screen. 
     The user provides the instruction to record the image by touching the shutter button SB. In a case where the instruction to record the image is provided, recording image data is fetched from the image sensor  42 , subjected to a necessary type of signal processing, and recorded in the memory  88 . The microcomputer  80  permits the user to perform imaging even before the instant film pack  100  is loaded in the film loading chamber  50 , or even in a case where the instant film  110  before exposure is not present in the instant film pack  100 . Even in a case where the instant film  110  that can be printed is not present, the recording image data is fetched from the image sensor  42 , subjected to the necessary type of signal processing, and recorded in the memory  88  by the instruction from the user. 
     &lt;Playback&gt; 
     In a case where the playback button PB displayed on the image displaying display  16  is touched in a state of the imaging mode, the mode of the printer-equipped camera  1  is switched to the playback mode. 
     In a case where switching is performed to the playback mode, image data of an image that is captured last (image that is recorded last in the memory  88 ) is read out from the memory  88  and displayed on the image displaying display  16 . 
       FIG. 21  is a diagram illustrating one example of displaying of the image displaying display in the playback mode. 
     As illustrated in the drawing, the image displaying display  16  displays a playback image PI and various operation buttons. In the example illustrated in  FIG. 21 , a case where a print button PrB, a camera button CB, and the menu button MB are displayed as the operation buttons is illustrated. The print button PrB is a button for providing a print instruction for the displayed image and constitutes a print instruction unit. The camera button CB is a button for providing an instruction to switch to the imaging mode and constitutes the mode switching unit. The menu button MB is a button for providing an instruction to display a menu screen. 
     In a case of printing the displayed image, the user touches the print button PrB. In a case of forwarding a frame, a flick operation is performed on a screen of the image displaying display  16 . The flick operation is an operation of swiping the screen with a fingertip. In a case of enlarging the displayed image, a pinch-out operation is performed on the screen of the image displaying display  16 . The pinch-out operation is an operation of increasing an interval between fingers while two fingers are in contact with the screen. In a case of reducing the displayed image, a pinch-in operation is performed on the screen of the image displaying display  16 . The pinch-in operation is an operation of decreasing an interval between fingers while two fingers are in contact with the screen. 
     &lt;Print&gt; 
     As described above, in a case where the print button PrB is touched during playback of the image in the playback mode, the displayed image is printed. In addition, in a case where an auto print mode is selected in the imaging mode, the captured image is printed without waiting for a print instruction. For example, setting ON and OFF of the auto print mode is performed by calling a setting screen for the mode from the menu screen. 
     In a case where the print instruction is provided, the image data of the print target displayed on the image displaying display  16  is provided to the print image processing unit  86 , and the print image data is generated. The microcomputer  80  displays the generated print image data on the exposure display  56  by providing the print image data to the displaying controller  90 . Accordingly, the print image is displayed on the exposure display  56 . 
     The instant film  110  is exposed by displaying the image on the exposure display  56 . The instant film  110  is exposed by irradiating the instant film  110  with light from each pixel of the exposure display  56  through the louver member  62 . The louver member  62  has an effect of allowing transmission of only light that is approximately perpendicular to the exposure surface  110   a . By this displaying control method, blurriness of the image can be prevented, and a high quality image can be printed. 
     The image is displayed at constant brightness for a constant time period. An exposure time period is set based on the brightness of the exposure display  56 . That is, the exposure time period is set to a time period in which the instant film  110  can be appropriately exposed. 
     In a case where a constant time period elapses from a start of displaying, displaying of the exposure display  56  is switched OFF, and the exposure is finished. In a case where the exposure is finished, the film forwarding mechanism  52  and the film transport mechanism  54  are driven. By driving the film forwarding mechanism  52 , the exposed instant film  110  is discharged from the case  120  by the claw  52   a . The instant film  110  discharged from the case  120  is discharged from the film discharge port  20  by the spreading roller pair  54   a . In addition, the developing treatment is performed during discharging. That is, the developing treatment liquid in the pod portion is subjected to the spreading processing by crushing the pod portion  114  by the spreading roller pair  54   a , and the developing treatment is performed. 
       FIG. 22  is a diagram illustrating a transition state of screen displaying of the image displaying display in a case of printing in the playback mode. 
       FIG. 22(A)  illustrates a playback state of the image. In this state, in a case where the print instruction for the image in playback is provided by touching the print button, a print checking screen is displayed as illustrated in  FIG. 22(B) . In the print checking screen, an image of a print is displayed on the image displaying display  16 . That is, an image (image in a form of fitting an image of the print target in the observation region  118  of the observation surface  110   b  of the instant film  110 ) in a case where the image is printed on the instant film  110  is displayed. At the same time, an “OK” button for providing an instruction to execute printing and a “CANCEL” button for providing an instruction to stop printing are displayed. The user touches the “OK” button in a case of executing printing, and touches the “CANCEL” button in a case of stopping printing. In a case where the “CANCEL” button is touched, a return is made to a playback screen illustrated in  FIG. 22(A) . In a case where the “OK” button is touched, a screen for notifying execution of printing is displayed as illustrated in  FIG. 22(C) . In this screen, a message “printing will be performed” is displayed. Then, printing is executed. That is, a recording image is displayed on the exposure display  56 , and the instant film  110  is exposed. During the exposure, displaying of the image displaying display  16  is switched OFF as illustrated in  FIG. 22(D) . In a case where the exposure is finished, a return is made to the playback screen of the printed image as illustrated in  FIG. 22(A) . 
     [Displaying Control of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display] 
     As described above, in the printer-equipped camera  1  of the present embodiment, displaying of the image displaying display  16  is switched OFF during the exposure. Accordingly, a peak value of power can be reduced, and a power load can be reduced. In addition, size reduction of a battery and also size reduction of the entire camera are achieved. 
       FIG. 23  is a timing chart of a displaying control of the image displaying display and the exposure display. 
     The drawing illustrates a form of displaying control in a case where the exposure starts at time t 2  and the exposure is finished at time t 3 . As illustrated in the drawing, while the instant film  110  is exposed by displaying the image on the exposure display  56 , displaying of the image displaying display  16  is switched OFF. 
     Displaying of the image displaying display  16  is switched OFF earlier than the start of the exposure by a constant time period. In other words, in a case of exposing the instant film, the exposure is started after an elapse of a constant time period (after an elapse of Δt) after displaying of the image displaying display  16  is switched OFF. 
     During the exposure, displaying of the image displaying display  16  is continuously switched OFF. In a case where the exposure is finished, displaying is switched ON after the elapse of the constant time period (after the elapse of Δt). That is, displaying of the exposure display  56  is switched OFF, and displaying is switched ON after the elapse of the constant time period from switching OFF. 
     During displaying of the exposure display  56 , displaying of the image displaying display  16  is always switched OFF. Accordingly, a peak value of power can be reduced, and a power load can be reduced. 
     Modification Example 
     &lt;Processing in Imaging Mode&gt; 
     In a case of printing in the imaging mode, driving of the imaging unit is preferably switched OFF during the exposure. More specifically, during displaying of the image on the exposure display  56 , driving of the imaging lens  12  and the image sensor  42  is switched OFF. Accordingly, the peak value of power can be more effectively reduced. In this case, the microcomputer  80  functions as an imaging control unit and controls driving of the imaging lens  12  and the image sensor  42 . 
     Modification Example 1 of Displaying Control of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     Controlling ON and OFF of displaying of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  may be performed by controlling ON and OFF of the backlight. 
     The backlight consumes more power than driving of the liquid crystal display. Thus, the power load can be sufficiently reduced by controlling ON and OFF of displaying by controlling ON and OFF of the backlight. In addition, the control can be simplified. 
     Modification Example 2 of Displaying Control of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     In a case of controlling ON and OFF of displaying of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  by controlling ON and OFF of the backlight, the same image may be displayed on the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56 . That is, the same image may be displayed on each liquid crystal display by outputting the same displaying data from the displaying controller  90 . Accordingly, the displaying control can be simplified. 
     In a case of the present example, during the exposure, the image displaying liquid crystal display  68  displays the image during the exposure (image to be recorded on the instant film  110 ). However, since the image displaying backlight  70  is switched OFF, the image cannot be visually recognized. Similarly, while the live view image is displayed on the exposure liquid crystal display  58  during imaging, the instant film  110  is not exposed since the exposure backlight  60  is switched OFF. 
     Modification Example 3 of Displaying Control of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     In a case of displaying the same image on the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56 , the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  may be configured to be connected to the same image output interface. 
       FIG. 24  is a conceptual diagram of a case where the image displaying display and the exposure display are connected to the same image output interface. 
     As illustrated in the drawing, the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  are connected to a same image output interface  90   a  for the displaying controller  90 . More specifically, the image displaying liquid crystal display  68  of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure liquid crystal display  58  of the exposure display  56  are connected to the same image output interface  90   a  of the displaying controller  90 . Accordingly, the same displaying data is provided to the image displaying liquid crystal display  68  and the exposure liquid crystal display  58  from the displaying controller  90 , and the same image is displayed. 
     Sharing an interface for the displaying control between the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  can further simplify a configuration. 
     Modification Example 4 of Displaying Control of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     Controlling ON and OFF of displaying of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  may be performed by switching the backlight to be turned ON using a switch. 
       FIG. 25  is a conceptual diagram of a case where controlling ON and OFF of displaying of the image displaying display and the exposure display is performed by switching the backlight to be turned on using the switch. 
     As illustrated in the drawing, the image displaying backlight  70  and the exposure backlight  60  are selectively turned on using a switch  90   b . Accordingly, any one of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  can selectively perform displaying. 
     Modification Example 5 of Displaying Control of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     As described above, in a case of exposing the instant film  110 , the image is displayed on the exposure display  56  at the constant brightness for the constant time period. Accordingly, the brightness of the exposure display  56  is constant. 
     Meanwhile, it is preferable that the brightness of the image displaying display  16  is freely adjustable by the user. That is, it is preferable to separately dispose a brightness adjustment unit so that the user can adjust the brightness to any brightness. Accordingly, favorable visibility can be secured at all times regardless of a usage environment. 
     For example, brightness adjustment is performed by preparing a brightness adjustment screen and performing a screen operation. For example, the brightness adjustment screen is configured to be called from the menu screen. Besides, it can be configured that adjustment is performed by disposing a brightness adjustment dial or the like in the camera body  10 . 
     While the constant brightness is set for the exposure display  56 , the brightness is set to be higher than the brightness of the image displaying display  16  since the louver member  62  is comprised in the exposure display  56 . 
     Modification Example of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     While both of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  are configured with a liquid crystal display in the embodiment, a displaying device used as the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  is not limited thereto. Besides, for example, a flat panel display such as an organic electro-luminescence display (OLED), a plasma display, a field emission display (FED), or an electronic paper can be used. The image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  do not need to be the same displaying device. For example, one can be configured with a liquid crystal display, and the other can be configured with an organic EL display. The image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  having different displaying sizes may be used. 
     In a case where the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  are configured with a liquid crystal display, a backlight having a surface light emitting configuration may be used. 
     Modification Example of Layout of Image Displaying Display and Exposure Display 
     While it is configured that the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  are arranged to be stacked back to back in the embodiment, a layout of the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  is not limited thereto. For example, the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  can be configured to be arranged with the film loading chamber  50  interposed therebetween. In this case, in a case where the instant film pack  100  is loaded in the film loading chamber  50 , the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  are arranged with the instant film  110  interposed therebetween. 
       FIG. 26  is a diagram illustrating a schematic configuration of the printer-equipped digital camera in a case where the image displaying display and the exposure display are arranged with the instant film pack interposed therebetween. 
     The drawing illustrates an example of a case where the image displaying display  16  is arranged in the film lid cover  14 . By arranging the image displaying display  16  in the film lid cover  14 , the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  are arranged with the instant film pack  100  interposed therebetween. 
     The light blocking wall can be omitted by arranging the image displaying display  16  and the exposure display  56  with the instant film pack  100  interposed therebetween. 
     Modification Example of Imaging Unit 
     A plurality of the imaging units may be comprised. For example, the imaging unit may be comprised on each of a front surface and a rear surface of the camera body  10 . Alternatively, the imaging unit may be rotatably held in the camera body so that an imaging direction can be adjusted to any direction. 
     Modification Example of Instant Film 
     The instant film to be used is not limited to the mono-sheet type, and an instant film of a peel-apart type or the like may be used. 
     Modification Example of Light Exit Direction Restriction Member 
     As the louver member that is the light exit direction restriction member, the light transmitting portion is only required to at least allow passage of light. Accordingly, the light transmitting portion can be configured with a cavity, and the light exit direction restriction member can be configured with only the light blocking portion. The light exit direction restriction member may be a porous plate. In the porous plate, multiple through-holes having a predetermined shape and size are disposed at a predetermined pitch in a rectangular plate having a predetermined thickness in order to restrict exiting of light from the pixels of the exposure display. While a material of a porous plate  2  is not particularly restricted, a metal plate such as an aluminum plate having a predetermined thickness, a resin plate, or a carbon material plate can be used. 
     Modification Example of Print Image Processing 
     In order to print a higher quality image, a predetermined type of image processing may be performed on an exposure image, that is, the image displayed on the exposure display, compared to the image displayed on the image displaying display. For example, considering that a difference in density of the recording image is smaller than that of a displaying image, processing of increasing (highlighting) a high-frequency component (edge part) of the displaying image in advance, that is, so-called edge highlighting processing, may be performed. For example, a well-known method such as unsharp mask processing can be employed as the edge highlighting processing. 
     Specifically, first, an unsharp mask is generated. In generation of the unsharp mask, for example, a two-dimensional Gaussian distribution in which f(x, y) illustrated in Expression (1) below is a filter coefficient and a degree of distribution is a standard deviation σ is applied.

     The standard deviation σ in Expression (1) above is a radius of the Gaussian distribution, that is, blurring of a blurred image, and is described as the number of pixels in the present embodiment. As illustrated in  FIG. 27 , the blurred image is generated from an input image by applying the unsharp mask illustrated by Expression (1) above to the input image. 
     Furthermore, as illustrated in  FIG. 28 , the print image processing unit  86  generates a high-frequency component image from a difference between the input image and the blurred image. As illustrated in  FIG. 28 , in the high-frequency component image, the difference is particularly large in a region in which a difference in gradation is large. 
     Furthermore, as illustrated in  FIG. 29 , the print image processing unit  86  generates a displaying image in which a high-frequency component is highlighted, by adding the high-frequency component image to the input image in accordance with a weight W. That is, the displaying image is in a state of degraded image quality, compared to the input image. 
     In a case where resolution of the exposure display  56  is 325 pixels per inch (ppi), in the unsharp mask processing to be applied to the input image, as will be described later as a “harmonic component highlighting experiment”, a range of the unsharp mask to be applied is preferably a range M 1  represented by Expression (2) below, more preferably a range M 2  represented by Expression (3) below, and still more preferably a range M 3  represented by Expression (4) below as illustrated in  FIG. 30  in a case where the standard deviation σ is denoted by x and the weight W is denoted by y.

     In a case where the resolution of the exposure display  56  is X ppi, an unsharp mask corresponding to a range obtained by multiplying the standard deviation σ in Expression (2) to Expression (4) by a number obtained by dividing X by 325 may be applied. Specifically, unsharp masks corresponding to the ranges M 1  to M 3  represented by Expression (5) to Expression (7), respectively, may be applied.

     After harmonic component highlighting processing is performed by the print image processing unit  86 , the displaying controller  90  exposes the instant film  110  by displaying, on the exposure display  56 , the displaying image in which the harmonic component is highlighted, compared to the image displayed on the image displaying display  16 .
