Original Abstract Submitted
an electronic device acquires a live view image; and performs control such that the live view image is displayed. during moving image shooting, the electronic device performs control such that a first item indicating that the moving image shooting is being performed is displayed together with the live view image. when still image shooting is performed, the electronic device performs control such that a second item indicating that the still image shooting is being performed is temporarily displayed together with the live view image. when still image shooting is performed in a state where moving image shooting is performed and the first item is displayed, the electronic device performs control such that an item to be displayed is temporarily switched from the first item to the second item.
