An electronic camera of the present invention includes an image pickup device, a positional data generating section, a memory, and an image processing section. The image pickup device includes a light-receiving plane photoelectrically converting a subject image. On the image pickup device any given partial image area is readable from a maximal image area. The positional data generating section generates positional data on the partial image area to the maximal image area. The memory holds a first edge enhancing filter used for data on the entire image and a second edge enhancing filter whose filter size is set smaller than that of the first edge enhancing filter. The image processing section performs, using the second edge enhancing filter, edge enhancement processing on data on a partial image extracted from the partial image area based on the positional data.
