Abstract

Image production record information related to image data is used to determine whether or not to execute a trimming process. Exposure program data and photograph scene data or subject area information, etc., are used as the image production record information.

1 . An image processing device for processing image data, comprising:
 an enlarging unit that executes an enlarging process to enlarge a face image area of an image; and   a display unit that executes an outputting process to output the image including the enlarged face image area to a displaying area of the display unit,   wherein a magnification of the enlarging process is set automatically so that the enlarged face image area will not extend beyond the displaying area.   
   
   
       2 . The image processing device according to  claim 1 ,
 wherein the face image area is specified by face position information regarding a face position in the image, and   wherein the enlarging unit does not execute the enlarging process if the image data does not include the face position information.   
   
   
       3 . The image processing device according to  claim 2 ,
 wherein the display unit outputs a frame that encloses the image including the enlarged face image area to the displaying area in the outputting process.
