1. A camera comprising: a capture unit that generates an image by capturing an area in which an evaluation-use object is present; a calculation unit that analyzes the image, and thereby detects the evaluation-use object in the image and calculates meaningful information from the evaluation-use object in the image; an object information acquisition unit that acquires and stores object information that is meaningful to a user and derived from the evaluation-use object; and an evaluation unit that performs an evaluation that includes comparing the meaningful information and the object information, and thereby calculating a degree of matching between the meaningful information and the object information, the evaluation determining whether or not a desired result is obtained from the image.
