Abstract:
A monitor control apparatus is provided in an optical device, such as a digital camera. A brightness control processor controls a brightness of a monitor of the optical device. A detecting processor detects an amount of change of an image sensed by an imaging sensor mounted in the optical device. The brightness control processor has an economy mode, in which the brightness is decreased when the amount of change is greater than a threshold value.
