Abstract
The present technology relates to an interchangeable lens and a method for controlling the same capable of starting shooting in consideration of mechanical fluctuations after a diaphragm is driven, a shooting apparatus, and a camera system. An interchangeable lens includes: a diaphragm; a diaphragm driving unit configured to drive the diaphragm; and a lens control unit configured to transmit diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to a shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm. The present technology is applicable to lens-interchangeable digital cameras, and the like, for example.
Claims20
An interchangeable lens comprising:
- a diaphragm;
- a diaphragm driving unit configured to drive the diaphragm;
- and
- a lens control unit configured to transmit diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to a shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm.
An interchangeable lens control method,
- wherein a lens control unit of an interchangeable lens comprising a diaphragm, a diaphragm driving unit configured to drive the diaphragm, and the lens control unit transmits diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to a shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm.
A shooting apparatus comprising:
- a body control unit configured to determine an exposure start timing on the basis of diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of a diaphragm acquired from an interchangeable lens.
A camera system comprising an interchangeable lens and a shooting apparatus on which the interchangeable lens is mounted,
- wherein the interchangeable lens comprises:
- a diaphragm;
- a diaphragm driving unit configured to drive the diaphragm;
- and
- a lens control unit configured to transmit diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to the shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm, and
- the shooting apparatus comprises:
- a body control unit configured to determine an exposure start timing on the basis of the diaphragm driving information.
