Imaging apparatus
View Patent ↗An imaging apparatus, not including a display that displays setting information for operation setting in the imaging apparatus, includes: an image sensor that captures a subject image to generate image data; an output interface connected to an external apparatus to output the image data; and a controller that controls an output setting for outputting the image data in a predetermined format from the output interface to the external apparatus. In a state where the output setting is applied, no setting information for canceling the output setting is displayed on the external apparatus serving as an output destination of the image data in the predetermined format by the output interface. The imaging apparatus further comprises an input interface that receives an instruction to cancel the output setting from the state where the output setting is applied.
1. An imaging apparatus not including a display that displays setting information for operation setting in the imaging apparatus, the imaging apparatus comprising:
an image sensor that captures a subject image to generate image data;
an output interface connected to an external apparatus to output the image data; and
a controller that controls an output setting for outputting the image data in a predetermined format from the output interface to the external apparatus,
wherein in a state where the output setting is applied, no setting information for canceling the output setting is displayed on the external apparatus serving as an output destination of the image data in the predetermined format by the output interface,
wherein, in the state where the output setting is applied, the predetermined format is a data format in which the controller is unable to output the setting information superimposed on the image data, and
the imaging apparatus further comprises an input interface that receives an instruction to cancel the output setting from the state where the output setting is applied.
2. An imaging apparatus not including a display that displays setting information for operation setting in the imaging apparatus, the imaging apparatus comprising:
an image sensor that captures a subject image to generate image data;
an output interface connected to an external apparatus to output the image data; and
a controller that controls an output setting for outputting the image data in a predetermined format from the output interface to the external apparatus,
wherein, in a state where the output setting is applied, the predetermined format is a data format in which the controller is unable to output the setting information superimposed on the image data, and
the imaging apparatus further comprises an input interface that receives an instruction to cancel the output setting from the state where the output setting is applied.
3. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the input interface receives the instruction to cancel the output setting, without causing an external display apparatus to display the setting information for canceling the output setting in the state where the output setting is applied.
4. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein
the controller causes the external apparatus of the output destination to display a predetermined message when an instruction to apply the output setting is input in the state where the output setting is not applied, and
the predetermined message includes at least one of: a notification to notify in advance that the setting information is not displayed on the external apparatus of the output destination when the output setting is applied; a notification to urge preparation of a display apparatus different from the external apparatus of the output destination; or a notification to confirm whether or not to apply the output setting.
5. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising a user interface that receives a user operation according to setting information to be displayed on the external apparatus in the state where the output setting is not applied.
6. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a communication interface connected to an external display apparatus to communicate data therewith, and
a user interface that receives a user operation according to displayed setting information on the display apparatus in the state where the output setting is applied with no setting information being displayed on the external apparatus of the output destination.
7. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the input interface includes an operation member to which a switching function is assigned in operation members provided in the imaging apparatus, the switching function switching whether or not to apply the output setting.
8. The imaging apparatus according to claim 7 , wherein the input interface receives the instruction to cancel the output setting, according to a predetermined user operation regardless of whether or not a function of the switching is assigned to the operation member.
9. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the predetermined format is a RAW format corresponding to a state of imaging by the image sensor.
10. The imaging apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the output interface outputs the image data to the external apparatus in conformity with an HDMI standard.
