Display control apparatus that controls display of information relating to bokeh and method for controlling the same
A display control apparatus, in which a user can easily recognize “taste of bokeh” of a captured image before the image is recorded, is disclosed. The display control apparatus controls so as to display, together with a first item that indicates either one of a setting value of an F-number or a T-number, a second item that indicates information that relates to an F-number and an amount of variance of a T-number that correspond to a current setting value.
1. A display control apparatus comprising:
one or more processors, when executing a program stored, function as:
a setting unit configured to be able to set at least a setting value of either one of an F-number, a T-number and a value relating to a focus distance;
an acquisition unit configured to be able to acquire information that relates to a degree of bokeh that changes based on the setting value set by the setting unit; and
a control unit configured to control so as to display the information corresponding to a current setting value acquired by the acquisition unit,
wherein the control unit configured to control so as to:
in a case where a predetermined lens is connected to a camera, display the information acquired by the acquisition unit; and
in a case where the predetermined lens is not connected to a camera, not display the information.
2. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein
the control unit configured to control so as to display, together with a first item that indicates the setting value set by the setting unit, a second item that indicates the information corresponding to a current setting value acquired by the acquisition unit.
3. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the acquisition unit acquires a table that indicates a correspondence of an F-number and a T-number.
4. The display control apparatus according to claim 3 , wherein the table is changed in accordance with a focus distance.
5. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the acquisition unit acquires, as the information that relates to the degree of bokeh, a difference between an F-number and a T-number for a current setting value or a proportion of the difference in relation to a maximum value of the difference.
6. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit displays as the degree of bokeh a numerical value that was acquired as the information that relates to the degree of bokeh.
7. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the control unit causes the information that relates to the degree of bokeh to be displayed on the live view screen.
8. The display control apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the setting unit is configured to set a setting value of the value relating to the focus distance.
9. The display control apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the acquisition unit acquires a table that indicates information that relates to a degree of bokeh that changes based on a focus distance.
10. The display control apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the acquisition unit acquires a table that indicates information that relates to a degree of bokeh that changes based on an F-number and a focus distance.
11. The display control apparatus according to claim 8 , wherein the control unit displays the information from when a setting of a focus distance of a lens is changed until a predetermined length of time has elapsed, and stops display of the information when the predetermined length of time has elapsed.
12. A method for controlling a display control apparatus, the method comprising:
acquiring, a bokeh index in a captured image based on a T-number that corresponds to a current F-number of a lens unit; and
controlling to cause a display, on a display unit, of an item that expresses the bokeh index.
13. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method for controlling a display control apparatus, the method comprising:
acquiring a bokeh index in a captured image based on a T-number that corresponds to a current F-number of a lens unit; and
controlling to cause a display, on a display unit, of an item that expresses the bokeh index.
14. A method for controlling a display control apparatus, the method comprising:
setting at least a setting value of either one of an F-number, a T-number and a value relating to a focus distance;
acquiring information that relates to a degree of bokeh that changes based on the setting value set by the setting; and
controlling so as to display the information corresponding to a current setting value acquired by the acquiring,
wherein the controlling comprises:
controlling, in a case where a predetermined lens is connected to a camera, so as to display the information acquired by the acquisition unit; and
controlling, in a case where the predetermined lens is not connected to a camera, so as not to display the information.
15. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing a program for causing a computer to execute a method for controlling a display control apparatus, the method comprising:
setting at least a setting value of either one of an F-number, a T-number and a value relating to a focus distance;
acquiring information that relates to a degree of bokeh that changes based on the setting value set by the setting; and
controlling so as to display the information corresponding to a current setting value acquired by the acquiring,
wherein the controlling comprises:
controlling, in a case where a predetermined lens is connected to a camera, so as to display the information acquired by the acquisition unit; and
controlling, in a case where the predetermined lens is not connected to a camera, so as not to display the information.
