Imaging apparatus, control method, and non-transitory computer readable medium

A control method of an imaging apparatus including a plurality of image processing units configured to output images obtained by imaging an object respectively in different directions, the control method comprising:

• combining the images output by the plurality of image processing units to thereby generate a combined image;
• recording the combined image in a recording medium;
• acquiring display range information indicating a display range displayed on a screen in the combined image;
• controlling the plurality of image processing units to drive in a first mode regardless of the display range information, in a case where the combined image is recorded in the recording medium;
• and
• controlling (1) a first image processing unit to drive in the first mode wherein the first image processing unit outputs an image corresponding to a displayed range in the combined image, and (2) a second image processing unit to drive in a second mode which power is saved compared with the first mode wherein the second image processing unit outputs an image corresponding to a non-displayed range in the combined image on the basis of the display range information, in a case where the combined image is not recorded in the recording medium.

A non-transitory computer readable medium that stores a program, wherein the program causes a computer to execute:

• a control method of an imaging apparatus including a plurality of image processing units configured to output images obtained by imaging an object respectively in different directions, the control method comprising:
• combining the images output by the plurality of image processing units to thereby generate a combined image;
• recording the combined image in a recording medium;
• acquiring display range information indicating a display range displayed on a screen in the combined image;
• controlling the plurality of image processing units to drive in a first mode regardless of the display range information, in a case where the combined image is recorded in the recording medium;
• and
• controlling (1) a first image processing unit to drive in the first mode wherein the first image processing unit outputs an image corresponding to a displayed range in the combined image, and (2) a second image processing unit to drive in a second mode which power is saved compared with the first mode wherein the second image processing unit outputs an image corresponding to a non-displayed range in the combined image on the basis of the display range information, in a case where the combined image is not recorded in the recording medium.
