PURPOSE:To simplify the operation and mechanism of a device remarkably, by controlling the on/off of an electric video signal obtained through an original picture by photoelectric conversion with an inputted position coodinate in advance, and making electric pickup or erasure of the specific part of the original. CONSTITUTION:A counter 11 is cleared, coordinates A, B, C, D which determine the part M to be picked up out of an original 13 are inputted with a position designation button and numeric button on a keyboard 1 and the recording operation is started with the recording button. When the original 13 is scanned and converted into an electric video signal S for the optical image of the original by a CCD15 and sequentially outputted with a clock pulse of a clock generator 10. On the other hand, the counter 11 and a comparator 12 count and scan the clock and when the number of scanning lines reaches the coordinate A, the post part can not be outputted. Thus, the specified part only is picked up or erased.
