Patent ID: 7961242

Claim:
A display apparatus for reading a reduced image of a shot image, and rotation information corresponding to the reduced image recorded on a recording unit to thereby display the reduced image, the display apparatus comprising: a read unit for reading the reduced image, and the rotation information corresponding to the reduced image recorded on the recording unit; an image extracting unit for extracting reduced images read by the read unit; and an image display controller for controlling the displaying of the extracted reduced images based on the rotation information, wherein, in the case where a direction along a short side of the display apparatus is defined as a first direction and a direction along a long side of the display apparatus is defined as a second direction, the image display controller controls the display apparatus such that: a dimension in the first direction of a reduced image, whose dimension in the first direction is larger than a dimension in a second direction, is larger than a dimension in the first direction of a reduced image whose dimension in the first direction is smaller than a dimension in the second direction; and a dimension in the second direction of the reduced image, whose dimension in the first direction is larger than the dimension in the second direction, is different from the dimension in the first direction of the reduced image whose dimension in the first direction is smaller than a dimension in the second direction.
