Abstract
An electronic device includes: a communication unit that performs communication with an external device; and a control unit that issues a command to the external device via the communication unit, on the basis of at least one of capacity of the external device, and capacity of the electronic device.
Claims13
An electronic device, comprising:
- an operating unit that has an operation member to issue a command in response to an operation of the operation member;
- a communicator capable of communicating with an external device;
- and
- a controller that executes a first operation when the communicator is not in communication with the external device based on the command and executes a second operation when the communicator is in communication with the external device based on the command, the first operation being different from the second operation, wherein:
- the communicator comprises a first communicator and a second communicator that is different from the first communicator, and
- the controller performs a first control in which the second communicator communicates with the external device after the first communicator communicates with the external device, and a second control in which the second communicator communicates with the external device without using the first communicator.

A non-transitory computer-readable computer program product containing a program for an electronic device that is executed by a computer, the program comprising:
- an instruction issuing a command in response to an operation of an operation member;
- an instruction for communicating with an external device through a communicator;
- and
- an instruction for executing a first operation when the communicator is not in communication with the external device based on the command and executing a second operation when the communicator is in communication with the external device based on the command, the first operation being different from the second operation, wherein:
- the communicator comprises a first communicator and a second communicator that is different from the first communicator, and
- the program enables the computer to execute one of an instruction for performing a first control in which the second communicator communicates with the external device after the first communicator communicates with the external device, and an instruction for performing a second control in which the second communicator communicates with the external device without using the first communicator.
