Abstract

See full text

There is provided a display device in a viewfinder, including a diffraction grating whose shape is determined at an interface between first and second materials, at least one of the first and second materials being adapted to have a variable refractive index for light reflected by an object to be photographed, and control means for changing the refractive index of the first and/or second materials, wherein the control means causes the light from the object to substantially pass through the diffraction grating in a first state and causes the diffraction grating to partially diffract the light from the object to display a pattern in a second state.
