A defect correcting method for a liquid crystal panel is disclosed, comprising the step of, when a plurality of pixels are connected, cutting off pixel electrodes of other pixels from a signal supply line in such a way as to drive the other pixels by a TFT of a pixel having a color filter of a highest light transmittance among the plurality of pixels. In one embodiment, an HDCMPU outputs to an RW channel a starting instruction for data transfer tofrom a head, and data that indicates data length of data to be transferred. Individual alignment units and the feature vectors associated with those alignment units are then provided to an alignment function, which aligns the feature vectors with the states of each alignment unit. When attached to the housing, the camera is stably held in position to allow easier hands-free use of the camera. In another embodiment, a vent in a top cap permits air to enter a liquid holding vessel as the liquid is removed. The other of the horizontal shafts is drivingly connected to an input shaft of the second transaxle apparatus.
