A portable electronic device with a camera of the present invention comprises a camera portion, a first light source outputting a first light as a strobe light emitting operation in connection with a photographing operation of the camera portion, a second light source outputting a second light for display and an illumination lens through which the first light and the second light exit the device. The illumination lens outputs both of the first light and the second light. A light diffuser, such as a prism reflects the second light to the illumination lens side between the illumination lens and the first light source, the second light reaching the first light source having been made as small as negligible.
