Description of Related Art [0006]Japanese Laid Open Patent Publication No. 2001-169174 discloses a digital camera with which photographed (recorded) image data is re-recordable after it is read out from a memory card to be subjected to image processing such as a sharpness process, a contrast control, a chroma control, etc. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION [0007]A digital camera, which photographs a subject, generates image data, and records the image data on a recording medium, according to a 1st aspect of the present invention includes: an image processing device that performs a plurality of image processing to the recorded image data, in response to a user's operation; a history creating device that creates, for each image data, history information that indicates a history of image processing performed by the image processing device; and a display unit that displays the history information thus created. [0008]According to a 2nd aspect of the present invention, in the digital camera according to the 1st aspect, the display unit may display the history information created with respect to the image data with an image based on the image data. [0009]According to a 3rd aspect of the present invention, in the digital camera according to the 2nd aspect, it is preferable that the display unit displays the history information, superimposing upon the image based on the image data. [0010]According to a 4th aspect of the present invention, in the digital camera according to the 1st aspect, it is preferable that the history information is information that represents a content of image processing performed to the image data, and, in case a plurality of image processing were performed, sequence of the plurality of image processing. [0011]A digital camera, which photographs a subject, generates image data, and records the image data on a recording medium, according to a 5th aspect of the present invention includes: an image processing device that performs image processing to the recorded image data, in response to a user's operation; and a display unit that displays image based on the recorded image data and information related to the image on display, wherein: when displaying the image, in case the image processing has been performed to the image data, information that is indicative of a content of the image processing is displayed, whereas in case the image processing has not been performed, other information or no information is displayed. [0012]According to a 6th aspect of the present invention, it is preferable that the digital camera according to the 5th aspect further includes a display switching device that switches to other information to be displayed or no information to be displayed, under a circumstance that the image based on the image data and the information being indicative of a content of the image processing are displayed on the display unit. [0013]According to a 7th aspect of the present invention, in the digital camera according to the 5th aspect, it is preferable that the image processing device is capable of performing a plurality type of image processing, and the information being indicative of a content of the image processing is a history information that indicates a history of image processing. [0014]A digital camera, which photographs a subject and generates image data according to a 8th aspect of the present invention includes: an image processing device that performs a plurality of image processing to the image data, in response to a user's operation; a history creating device that creates a history information that, for each image data, indicates a history of image processing performed by the image processing device; and a display unit that displays the history information thus created. [0015]According to a 9th aspect of the present invention, the digital camera according to the 8th aspect may further include an image processing selection device that specifies image processing to be performed to the image data and its sequence to be performed prior to a photographing operation, and the image processing device may perform image processing, following a content that is specified with the image processing selection device. [0016]A computer-readable computer program product containing a control program for image processing according to a 10th aspect of the present invention, the control program including: instructions for performing image processing to image data; instructions for creating a history information that, for each image data, indicates a content of the image processing performed to the image data, and, in case of a plurality of image processing having been performed, its sequence; and instructions for displaying the history information thus created. [0017]According to a 11th aspect of the present invention, in the computer-readable computer program product according to the 10th aspect, the computer-readable computer program product may be a recording medium on which the control program is recorded. [0018]According to a 12th aspect of the present invention, in the computer-readable computer program product according to the 10th aspect, the computer-readable computer program product may be a carrier wave in which the control program is embodied as a data signal. [0019]A method for image processing according to a 13th aspect of the present invention: performs image processing to image data; creates, for each image data, a history information that indicates a content of the image processing performed to the image data, and, in case of a plurality of image processing having been performed, its sequence; and displays the history information thus created.
