A camera control apparatus comprises a processor adapted to control a display to display a plurality of sensed images respectively obtained from a plurality of cameras and a transmitter adapted to transmit a command to control another camera to execute color adjustment based on an image signal of a reference region of an image of a reference camera of the images displayed as a list by the processor.

Camera control apparatus, camera control method, and camera system

An image sensing apparatus includes an imager, an image reducer for reducing an image size from imaging data obtained from the imager, a moving image configurer for rendering an image reduced by the image reducer as a moving image, an image processor for image-processing image data, a network communicator, and a storing device for storing frame image data obtained from the imager in response to a control instruction from the outside while taking a moving image. The image data stored in the storing device is image-processed by dividing it into non-operating periods of moving image processing per frame configuring the moving image. Also, parallel processing of a moving image and a still image is performed without lowering a frame rate of the moving image.
