Imaging device, imaging instruction method, and imaging instruction program

An imaging instruction method using an imaging instruction device including a processor that issues an imaging instruction to an imaging unit of an imaging device, the imaging instruction method comprising:

• by the processor,
• receiving a first instruction to issue an instruction to set a second imaging parameter different from a first imaging parameter during capturing of a first moving image based on the first imaging parameter by the imaging unit to instruct the imaging unit with the received first instruction;
• receiving a second instruction to start capturing of a second moving image based on the second imaging parameter after the reception of the first instruction to cause the imaging unit to start the capturing of the second moving image;
• causing, in a case where the second instruction is received, the imaging unit to capture the first moving image until a third instruction to end the capturing of the first moving image is received;
• causing, in a case where the third instruction is received, the imaging unit to end the capturing of the first moving image;
• and
• after reception of the third instruction, temporarily disabling an association between an operation input for issuing an end instruction and an instruction to end capturing.

A non-transitory, computer-readable tangible recording medium which records thereon a program that causes a computer of an imaging instruction device to execute an imaging instruction to an imaging unit of an imaging device, the program causing the computer to execute:

• a function of receiving a first instruction to issue an instruction to set a second imaging parameter different from a first imaging parameter during capturing of a first moving image based on the first imaging parameter by the imaging unit to instruct the imaging unit with the received first instruction;
• a function of receiving a second instruction to start capturing of a second moving image based on the second imaging parameter after the reception of the first instruction to cause the imaging unit to start the capturing of the second moving image;
• a function of causing, in a case where the second instruction is received, the imaging unit to capture the first moving image until a third instruction to end the capturing of the first moving image is received;
• a function of causing, in a case where the third instruction is received, the imaging unit to end the capturing of the first moving image;
• and
• a function of temporarily disabling, after reception of the third instruction, an association between an operation input for issuing an end instruction and an instruction to end capturing.
