Luminance components of image profile portions are extracted from
luminance components (Y components) included in image data corresponding
to an image within a focus frame. A profile component evaluation value is
obtained by totalizing the absolute values of
two-dimensionally-differentiated values of the extracted components. A
distribution graph of a focus lens position and the profile component
evaluation value is generated. A finder image is displayed by combining a
photo-object image and the distribution graph. At this time, a bar
corresponding to a current focus lens position is displayed in a
different color from that of other bars in the distribution graph.
