Abstract
An image capturing apparatus comprises: an image capturing unit configured to acquire a video signal including frames, and an output unit configured to output the video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is acquired by the image capturing unit and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output by the output unit, to an external apparatus.
Claims19
An image capturing apparatus comprising:
- an image capturing unit configured to acquire a video signal including frames, and
- an output unit configured to output the video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is acquired by the image capturing unit and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output by the output unit, to an external apparatus.
An image capturing apparatus comprising:
- an image capturing unit configured to acquire a first video signal;
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire a second video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the second video signal is acquired by the external apparatus and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output by the external apparatus;
- and
- an adding unit configured to add a third time code synchronized with the second time code, to the first video signal.
An image capturing system comprising a first image capturing apparatus and a second image capturing apparatus,
- wherein the first image capturing apparatus comprises:
- a first image capturing unit configured to acquire a first video signal including frames, and
- an output unit configured to output the first video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the first video signal is acquired by the first image capturing unit and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the first video signal is output by the output unit, to the second image capturing apparatus, and
- wherein the second image capturing apparatus comprises:
- a second image capturing unit configured to acquire a second video signal;
- an acquisition unit configured to acquire the first video signal, the first time code for a time at which each frame of the first video signal is acquired by the first image apparatus and information related to the second time code for a time at which each frame of the first video signal is output by the first apparatus;
- and
- an adding unit configured to add a third time code synchronized with the first time code, to the second video signal.
A control method of an image capturing apparatus comprising:
- image capturing in which a video signal including frames is acquired;
- and
- outputting the video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is acquired by the image capturing unit and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output in the outputting, to an external apparatus.
A control method of an image capturing apparatus comprising:
- image capturing in which a video signal is acquired;
- acquiring a second video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the second video signal is acquired by the external apparatus and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output by the external apparatus;
- and
- adding a third time code synchronized with the second time code, to the first video data.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method of an image capturing apparatus comprising:
- image capturing in which a video signal including frames is acquired;
- outputting the video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is acquired by the image capturing unit and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output in the outputting, to an external apparatus.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a control method of an image capturing apparatus comprising:
- image capturing in which a video signal is acquired;
- acquiring a second video signal, a first time code for a time at which each frame of the second video signal is acquired by the external apparatus and information related to a second time code for a time at which each frame of the video signal is output by the external apparatus;
- and
- adding a third time code synchronized with the second time code, to the first video data.
