Title:
DIGITAL LEVEL, DIGITAL CAMERA WITH THE SAME, AND DIGITAL LEVEL PROGRAM
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2015227825
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a novel digital level, digital camera with the novel digital level, and digital level program that correctly detect an inclination of the camera body upon photographing and can facilitate levelling.SOLUTION: A digital camera comprises: a camera body that includes a display unit; a horizontal inclination sensor; and a forward/rearward inclination sensor. The inclination of the camera body detected by each of the sensors is indicated by a first marker M1 moving along a level line L1 extending in a horizontal direction of the display unit and a second marker M2 moving along a level line L2 extending in a vertical direction of the display unit. Accordingly, a visual observation of locations of the first and second markers M1 and M2 moving along the level lines L1 and L2 allows a degree of inclination of the camera body or a horizontal state thereof to be easily grasped, which in turn can facilitate leveling of the camera body upon photographing.
