Imaging apparatus and control method

A method comprising:

• receiving first information including information on a shooting position of an external apparatus;
• causing a movement unit of an imaging apparatus to move the imaging apparatus to a position at which a bird's eye view of subjects is made possible;
• causing an imaging unit of the imaging apparatus to perform shooting at the position at which the bird's eye view of the subject is made possible;
• acquiring second information on the subjects from an image that is shot at the position at which the bird's eye view of the subject is made possible;
• determining priority for shooting each of the subjects based on the first information and the second information;
• and
• controlling the movement unit and the imaging unit based on the determined priority.
