Imaging apparatus

An imaging apparatus comprising:

• a main body part configured to include an imaging unit;
• a display part configured to change its posture with respect to the main body part;
• a rotation unit configured to rotatably hold the display part with respect to the main body part;
• a first detection unit configured to detect information about gravitational acceleration applied to the main body part;
• a second detection unit configured to detect information about gravitational acceleration applied to the display part;
• and
• a calculation unit configured to calculate an opening/closing angle of the display part with respect to the main body part based on acceleration signals acquired from the first detection unit and the second detection unit,
• wherein the opening/closing angle of the display part is divided into a first opening/closing angle range, a second opening/closing angle range, and a third opening/closing angle range,
• wherein the third opening/closing angle range is formed between the first opening/closing angle range and the second opening/closing angle range,
• wherein, in a case where the first opening/closing angle range is determined by the calculation unit, a first display state is displayed on the display part,
• wherein, in a case where the second opening/closing angle range is determined by the calculation unit, a second display state is displayed on the display part, and
• wherein, in a case where the third opening/closing angle range is determined by the calculation unit, the first display state or the second display state is displayed on the display part in accordance with a tilt angle of the main body part with respect to gravity or a tilt angle of the display part with respect to gravity.
