Imaging apparatus, imaging apparatus body, and method of controlling imaging apparatus

An imaging apparatus body on which a lens barrel having an apodization filter is mounted, the imaging apparatus body comprising:

• an imaging element that photoelectrically converts incident light so as to output an imaging signal;
• a stop that adjusts a light amount of the incident light;
• a photometric section that performs photometry on the basis of the imaging signal;
• a program diagram storage section that stores a first program diagram in which an aperture value is fixed at an open aperture value at a first amount of exposure or less and a second program diagram in which an aperture value is fixed at an open aperture value at a second amount of exposure, which is greater than the first amount of exposure, or less;
• an imaging exposure determination section that selects the first program diagram in a case where the apodization filter is not disposed on the optical path, selects the second program diagram in a case where the apodization filter is disposed on the optical path, and determines one group of an imaging aperture value and an imaging shutter speed, on the basis of an amount of imaging exposure which is calculated from a photometric value obtained by the photometric section;
• a neutral density filter that is inserted into or removed from the optical path;
• and
• a control section that inserts the neutral density filter in the optical path in a case where the apodization filter is disposed on the optical path and a case where the amount of imaging exposure is greater than the second amount of exposure.
