In the digital camera that can be used in connection to a mobile phone or
other mobile electronic devices and the system thereof, a battery mounted
in each device is shared to allow power to be supplied between the
devices, and allow both devices to be used for longer hours. The digital
camera and the mobile phone are electrically connectable by a connection
cable. Generally, a power supply selection switch is set to A, and a
power supply selection switch is set to D. The digital camera receives
power supplied from a battery, and the mobile phone receives power
supplied form a battery. From this state, when the power supply selection
switch is switched to C, power is supplied from the battery to the mobile
phone. On the other hand, when the power supply selection switch is set
to B, and the power supply selection switch is set to D, power is
supplied from the battery of the mobile phone to the digital camera.
