Abstract
The image display apparatus is connected, directly or via a recording apparatus, to an image capturing apparatus, and includes a first acquisition unit configured to acquire recording process information on an image recording process for recording, with the image capturing apparatus or the recording apparatus, moving image data generated by capturing an object with the image capturing apparatus and audio data representing audio that is input to a microphone during a shooting period of the moving image data, and a reduction unit configured to execute a sound reduction process for reducing a sound output from the image display apparatus, in a case where the image recording process is executed, based on the recording process information.
Claims23
An image display apparatus that is capable of being connected, directly or via a recording apparatus, to an image capturing apparatus, the image display apparatus comprising:
- a fan for lowering an internal temperature of the image display apparatus;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the image display apparatus to function as:
- (1) a first acquisition unit configured to acquire recording process information on an image recording process for recording, by the image capturing apparatus or the recording apparatus, image data generated by capturing an object with the image capturing apparatus;
- and
- (2) a reduction unit configured to execute a sound reduction process in which a rotational speed of the fan is reduced or rotation of the fan is stopped, in response to the image recording process being executed, based on the recording process information.
An image display apparatus comprising:
- a fan for lowering an internal temperature of the image display apparatus;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the image display apparatus to function as:
- (1) an acquisition unit configured to acquire shooting time information representing a shooting time of image data generated by capturing an object with an image capturing apparatus;
- and
- (2) a reduction unit configured to execute a sound reduction process in which a rotational speed of the fan is reduced or rotation of the fan is stopped, based on the shooting time information acquired by the acquisition unit,
- wherein, as shooting time information on the image data, the acquisition unit acquires, for each frame of the image data, shooting time information representing a shooting time of the frame, and
- wherein the reduction unit executes the sound reduction process in a case where the shooting time that is represented by the shooting time information acquired by the acquisition unit is updated sequentially and different from a current time.
A control method for an image display apparatus that is capable of being connected, directly or via a recording apparatus, to an image capturing apparatus, the image display apparatus having a fan for lowering an internal temperature of the image display apparatus, and the control method comprising:
- an acquisition step of acquiring recording process information on an image recording process for recording, by the image capturing apparatus or the recording apparatus, image data generated by capturing of an object with the image capturing apparatus;
- and
- a reduction step of executing a sound reduction process in which a rotational speed of the fan is reduced or rotation of the fan is stopped, in response to the image recording process being executed, based on the recording process information.
A control method for an image display apparatus having a fan for lowering an internal temperature of the image display apparatus, the control method comprising:
- an acquisition step of acquiring shooting time information representing a shooting time of image data generated by capturing an object with an image capturing apparatus;
- and
- a reduction step of executing a sound reduction process in which a rotational speed of the fan is reduced or rotation of the fan is stopped, based on the shooting time information acquired in the acquisition step,
- wherein, as shooting time information on the image data, the acquisition step acquires, for each frame of the image data, shooting time information representing a shooting time of the frame, and
- wherein the reduction step executes the sound reduction process in a case where the shooting time that is represented by the shooting time information acquired in the acquisition step is updated sequentially and different from a current time.
An image display apparatus that is capable of being connected, directly or via a recording apparatus, to an image capturing apparatus, the image display apparatus comprising:
- a fan for lowering an internal temperature of the image display apparatus;
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing instructions which, when executed by the processor, cause the image display apparatus to function as:
- (1) an acquisition unit configured to acquire information indicating an instruction for recording image data generated by capturing an object with the image capturing apparatus, the information being generated by the image capturing apparatus;
- and
- (2) a control unit configured to start control of reducing a rotational speed of the fan or stopping rotation of the fan, in response to the information acquired by the acquisition unit.
