Imaging apparatus, control method, and program

A control method for a camera including a housing loaded with a film on which a photosensitive surface is caused to be exposed to subject light to record a subject image and a light source that is provided in the housing and is capable of emitting, to the photosensitive surface, effect light that exposes the photosensitive surface in a manner superimposed on the subject light to impart a visual effect to the subject image,

• in which the light source is capable of emitting a plurality of types of effect light for obtaining different types of the visual effect according to setting of a parameter,
• the control method comprising:
• acquiring effect specification information capable of specifying the type of the visual effect;
• and
• executing control of setting the parameter according to the type of the visual effect indicated by the effect specification information.

A non-transitory storage medium storing a program causing a computer to execute a process in a camera including a housing loaded with a film on which a photosensitive surface is caused to be exposed to subject light to record a subject image and a light source that is provided in the housing and is capable of emitting, to the photosensitive surface, effect light that exposes the photosensitive surface in a manner superimposed on the subject light to impart a visual effect to the subject image,

• in which the light source is capable of emitting a plurality of types of effect light for obtaining different types of the visual effect according to setting of a parameter,
• the process comprising:
• acquiring effect specification information capable of specifying the type of the visual effect;
• and
• executing control of setting the parameter according to the type of the visual effect indicated by the effect specification information.

An imaging apparatus comprising:

• a housing in which an imaging element that causes a light-receiving surface to be exposed to subject light to capture a subject image is disposed;
• and
• a light source that is provided in the housing and is capable of emitting, to the light-receiving surface, effect light that exposes the light-receiving surface in a manner superimposed on the subject light to impart a visual effect to the subject image,
• wherein the light source is capable of emitting a plurality of types of the effect light for obtaining different types of the visual effect according to setting of a parameter,
• the imaging apparatus further comprises
• a reception unit that receives designation of a type of the visual effect, and
• a processor, and
• the processor is configured to:
• acquire effect specification information capable of specifying the type of the visual effect received via the reception unit;
• and
• execute control of setting the parameter according to the type of the visual effect indicated by the effect specification information.
