PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simply add information with respect to the position obtained based on identification information of a radio base station to a picked-up image as information relating to the position where the image is picked up by providing a control means that controls each means such a way that image data entered by an image entry means are stored in an image storage means in cross reference with position information stored in a storage means. SOLUTION: When a position information registration means 8c uses a key operation section 7 to enter position information corresponding to a radio base station identification code included in a notice signal sent intermittently from a radio base station in a standby state when an image input device conducts no radio communication, the position information registration means 8c registers position information corresponding to the radio base station identification code to a position information storage means 8d. Then a position information collation means 8e collates the content of the position information storage means 8d to acquire the position information when the position information is registered and adds data of the position information to the image data stored in an image data storage section 11.
