Abstract
Provided are an imaging apparatus and an imaging method capable of relatively accurately focusing on a main object in a relatively short time. A movement region () of a main object OA is imaged in a camera apparatus A and a different camera apparatus B. In the camera apparatus A, the main object OA is recognized from a captured image. Data indicating the position of the main object OA, transmitted from the camera apparatus B, is received in the camera apparatus A, and a focusing target range is set at the front and back of the position of the main object OA. A movement of a focus lens of the camera apparatus A is limited so as to focus on the focusing target range.
