Apparatus and method for information processing and program

A method for information processing, the method comprising the steps of:

• acquiring restriction information about imaging functions from an imaging device connected to a network;
• displaying a setting window in which after a parameter for one imaging function is selected, selectable parameters for other imaging functions are restricted in accordance with the selected parameter on the basis of the restriction information so that the imaging functions to be used are selected;
• and
• acquiring image information about an image captured using the selected imaging functions via the network.

A program that allows a computer to perform:

• acquiring restriction information about imaging functions from an imaging device connected to a network;
• displaying a setting window in which after a parameter for one imaging function is selected, selectable parameters for other imaging functions are restricted in accordance with the selected parameter on the basis of the restriction information so that the imaging functions to be used are selected;
• and
• acquiring image information about an image captured using the selected imaging functions via the network.
