Abstract
When the image sensing apparatus is turning on, whether or not a manual image sensing mode was set when the image sensing apparatus was last shut down is determined. If the manual image sensing mode was set, image sensing conditions stored in memory when last shutting down the apparatus are read and set in the image sensing apparatus.
Claims23
An image sensing apparatus comprising:
- an operation unit to set image sensing conditions;
- memory to store the image sensing conditions;
- determination means for determining whether or not a predetermined image sensing condition was set when the image sensing apparatus was last shut down;
- and
- control means for, in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was set, controlling to read the image sensing conditions stored in said memory and set the image sensing conditions in the image sensing apparatus when turning on the image sensing apparatus.
A control method for an image sensing apparatus comprising:
- a determination step of determining whether or not a predetermined image sensing condition was set when the image sensing apparatus was last shut down;
- a reading step of, in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was set, reading the image sensing conditions stored in memory;
- and
- a setting step of setting the read image sensing conditions in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was set, or default image sensing conditions in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was not set, in the image sensing apparatus when turning on the image sensing apparatus.
A computer program product comprising a computer usable medium having computer readable program code means embodied in said medium for a control method for an image sensing apparatus, said product including:
- first computer readable program code means for determining whether or not a predetermined image sensing condition was set when the image sensing apparatus was last shut down;
- second computer readable program code means for, in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was set, reading the image sensing conditions stored in memory;
- and
- third computer readable program code means for setting the read image sensing conditions in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was set, or default image sensing conditions in a case where the predetermined image sensing condition was not set, in the image sensing apparatus when turning on the image sensing apparatus.
