The present technology relates to an interchangeable lens and a method for controlling the same capable of starting shooting in consideration of mechanical fluctuations after a diaphragm is driven, a shooting apparatus, and a camera system. An interchangeable lens includes a diaphragm, a diaphragm driving unit that drives the diaphragm, and a lens control unit that transmits diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to a shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm. The present technology is applicable to lens-interchangeable digital cameras, and the like, for example.

Interchangeable lens capable of transmitting diaphragm driving information to shooting apparatus, shooting apparatus, and camera system

Provided is an imaging apparatus including a mode setting unit that sets a diaphragm driving mode out of a plurality of diaphragm driving modes including a first diaphragm driving mode and a second diaphragm driving mode in which diaphragm driving is more limited than in the first diaphragm driving mode, and a diaphragm control unit that controls diaphragm driving in accordance with brightness of an imaging target in a case where the mode setting unit sets the second diaphragm driving mode.

Imaging apparatus, imaging control method, interchangeable lens and diaphragm driving method

To suppress a difference in brightness and darkness in a captured image caused by a difference in an exposure start time by a rolling shutter even if the exposure period is not changed. Provided is an imaging device including a gain setting unit configured to set a gain for each line in which a plurality of pixels is arrayed, the plurality of pixels being two-dimensionally arranged in a matrix in an image sensor, on the basis of diaphragm drive information regarding a diaphragm drive locus representing a time-series change in a diaphragm value. Thereby, the difference in brightness and darkness in a captured image caused by the difference in an exposure start time by a rolling shutter can be suppressed even if the exposure period is not changed.

Imaging device and gain setting method

The present technology relates to an interchangeable lens and a method for controlling the same capable of starting shooting in consideration of mechanical fluctuations after a diaphragm is driven, a shooting apparatus, and a camera system. An interchangeable lens includes: a diaphragm; a diaphragm driving unit configured to drive the diaphragm; and a lens control unit configured to transmit diaphragm driving information including stabilization time information of the diaphragm to a shooting apparatus when the diaphragm driving unit drives the diaphragm. The present technology is applicable to lens-interchangeable digital cameras, and the like, for example.

Interchangeable lens and method for controlling the same, shooting apparatus, and camera system

An image processing apparatus includes: a drawing unit which draws one of a plurality of images arranged in an order specified on the basis of a predetermined rule as a reference image in an image memory and which arranges and draws the predetermined number of images located on either side of the reference image in the order and continuing from the reference image as near images of the reference image in the order with reference to the reference image in the image memory; a display controller which displays the images falling within a predetermined range among the images drawn in the image memory on a display unit; and a controller which changes the position of the predetermined range in accordance with an instruction operation of changing a display state of the images on the display unit, when the instruction operation is received.

Image processing apparatus, image processing method, and program

An image display control apparatus includes an image data supply section that supplies an image composed of a plurality of pixels arranged two-dimensionally in a matrix form as captured image data, a mask data supply section that supplies mask data for masking the image data, an imaging instruction accepting section that validates an imaging instruction acceptance signal when accepting an operation input corresponding to an imaging instruction, and a drawing section that sequentially draws the respective pixels, each having a pixel value, in the image data every predetermined period. When detecting that the imaging instruction acceptance signal is valid, the drawing section draws the pixels such that each pixel has a value including the mask data as the pixel value after the detection.
