A digital camera includes an inclination sensor for detecting an inclination in a rotating direction around an optical axis. When a shutter button is half-depressed, a character signal corresponding to a detection result of the inclination sensor is generated by a character generator, and a character based on the character signal is displayed on a monitor. When the shutter button is full-depressed, an image photographed in response to the full depressing and detection result information of the inclination sensor at a time of the full depressing are recorded onto a memory card. An image reproduced from the memory card is displayed in a manner corresponding to the detection result information relating to the image.
