Abstract
A camera controller controls driving of a focus lens included in a lens group based on a result of first focus detection performed by a defocus amount detection unit. The defocus amount detection unit performs second focus detection based on image data acquired by a first image sensor which outputs image data corresponding to a subject image at a position of the focus lens that is based on the control. The camera controller evaluates, based on a result of the second focus detection, a focusing state of the image data that is based on an output of the first image sensor, and performs control to record information about the evaluated focusing state together with data corresponding to the image data.
