Abstract
Control is performed to capture a plurality of frames of live view images before execution of continuous capturing of a plurality of frames of still images and to display the captured plurality of frames of live view images on a display unit in a predetermined cycle. And control is performed to continuously capture the plurality of frames of still images without capturing the plurality of frames of live view images during execution of the continuous capturing and to display at least some of the plurality of frames of still images as some of the plurality of frames of live view images on the display unit in the predetermined cycle.
Claims7
An imaging apparatus comprising:
- an imaging element;
- a display unit configured to display a live view image captured by the imaging element;
- at least one processor;
- and
- at least one memory that is in communication with the at least one processor, wherein the at least one memory stores instructions for causing the at least one processor and the at least one memory to execute:
- performing control to capture a plurality of frames of live view images by the imaging element before execution of continuous capturing of a plurality of frames of still images and to display the captured plurality of frames of live view images on the display unit in a predetermined cycle;
- and
- performing control to continuously capture the plurality of frames of still images by the imaging element without capturing the plurality of frames of live view images during execution of the continuous capturing and to display at least some of the plurality of frames of still images as some of the plurality of frames of live view images on the display unit in the predetermined cycle.
A control method of an imaging apparatus including an imaging element and a display unit configured to display a live view image captured by the imaging element, the method comprising:
- capturing a plurality of frames of live view images by the imaging element before execution of continuous capturing of a plurality of frames of still images and performing control to display the captured plurality of frames of live view images on the display unit in a predetermined cycle;
- and
- performing control to continuously capture the plurality of frames of still images by the imaging element without capturing the plurality of frames of live view images during execution of the continuous capturing and to display at least some of the plurality of frames of still images as some of the plurality of frames of live view images on the display unit in the predetermined cycle.
