An image capturing device includes an optical module configured to capture an image, at least one sensor module configured to generate image signals for the captured image, and a data processing module configured to generate image data for the captured image on the basis of the generated image signals. The image capturing device further includes a display device configured to display the captured image on the basis of the generated image data and an assigned memory unit configured to store the generated image data. The data processing module has a marking unit configured to optically mark at least one image position in the displayed image on the display device and to produce on the display device a display of at least one designating element to allow a designation of the at least one image position. The designating element is configured to allow a clear identification of the image position designated.
