Kind Code:
B2
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide picture communication equipment which can be miniaturized with operation keys reduced by making it possible to select a state for indicating a zoomed state and a station number of another party by a rotation switch when communication is executed by using a communication means. SOLUTION: A telephone mode execution switch 31 is a switch for switching to a telephone function in the case of calling a another party, a switch 22 has a function of this telephone mode by this telephone mode execution switch 31 and, when this switch 31 is not pressed, it has a camera mode function. That is, when a user presses the telephone mode execution switch 31 in order to call the switch 22 of ten keys functions as a key for inputting a telephone number. When the user does not call, the switch 22 functions as a key for inputting a set area of an AF. In this way, the single switch 22 makes it possible to realize miniaturization and so as not to impair design without increasing switches by utilizing two functions (the camera function and the telephone function) in different ways.
