controlling an image sensor to begin capturing one or more images in a continuous shoot mode in response to detecting a movement of a user finger, in a first direction of operation of the movable display object with respect to the touch screen display, from the first position on the touch screen display to the third position on the touch screen display, and
controlling the touch screen display to display an animation moving the movable display object to the first position in response to detecting a ceasing of a touching of the touch screen display,
wherein a display of the GUI other than the movable display object is configured to rotate when the touch screen display is switched between a vertical orientation and a horizontal orientation, but a direction of detecting the movement of the user finger from the first position to the second position and from the first position to the third position with respect to the touch screen display does not change when the GUI is switched between the vertical orientation and the horizontal orientation.
13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , the operations further comprise:
operating a first operation in response to detecting a maintaining of a touching of the touch screen display at the first position for a predetermined amount of time.
14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12 , the operations further comprise:
stopping capture of the one or more images in a second imaging mode in response to detecting the ceasing of the touching of the touch screen display.
