Control apparatus, image pickup apparatus, and lens apparatus

A control apparatus for an image display system that includes a first optical system configured to form a first optical image of an object, a second optical system configured to form a second optical image of the object, a first driving unit configured to move a first imaging position of the first optical image and a second imaging position of the second optical image, a second driving unit configured to move the second imaging position, and an operation unit operable to adjust the second driving unit, the control apparatus comprising:

• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
• acquire information regarding the first imaging position and the second imaging position, and
• cause a display unit to display the information in a case where the second driving unit moves the second imaging position in accordance with an operation on the operation unit,
• wherein in a case where the second driving unit moves the second imaging position in accordance with an operation of the operation unit and thereby the second imaging position falls outside a permissible range, and an operation direction of the operation unit is a direction that moves the second imaging position to inside of the permissible range, the processor is configured to move the second imaging position using the second driving unit.

An image pickup apparatus comprising:

• a control apparatus for an image display system that includes a first optical system configured to form a first optical image of an object, a second optical system configured to form a second optical image of the object, a first driving unit configured to move a first imaging position of the first optical image and a second imaging position of the second optical image, a second driving unit configured to move the second imaging position, an operation unit operable to adjust the second driving unit;
• and
• an image sensor configured to photoelectrically convert the first optical image and the second optical image;
• and
• a display unit configured to display information regarding the first imaging position and the second imaging position,
• wherein the control apparatus includes:
• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
• acquire the information, and
• cause the display unit to display the information in a case where the second driving unit moves the second imaging position in accordance with an operation on the operation unit,
• wherein in a case where the second driving unit moves the second imaging position in accordance with the operation of the operation unit and thereby the second imaging position falls outside a permissible range, the processor is configured to notify that the second imaging position falls outside the permissible range.

A lens apparatus comprising:

• a control apparatus;
• a first optical system configured to form a first optical image of an object;
• a second optical system configured to form a second optical image of the object;
• a first driving unit configured to move a first imaging position of the first optical image and a second imaging position of the second optical image;
• a second driving unit configured to move the second imaging position;
• and
• an operation unit operable to adjust the second driving unit,
• wherein the control apparatus includes:
• a memory storing instructions;
• and
• a processor configured to execute the instructions to:
• acquire information regarding the first imaging position and the second imaging position, and
• cause a display unit to display the information in a case where the second driving unit moves the second imaging position in accordance with an operation on the operation unit,
• wherein in a case where the second driving unit moves the second imaging position in accordance with the operation of the operation unit and thereby the second imaging position falls outside a permissible range, the processor is configured to notify that the second imaging position falls outside the permissible range.
