Abstract

An image capturing apparatus includes: an image capturing unit that includes an imaging device in which pixels are arranged in a two-dimensional array and that outputs an image signal obtained by image capturing of a photographic subject by the imaging device; an image processing unit that generates a captured image based on the image signal; and a CPU that performs an exposure control process to determine whether an image of a moving subject is included in the captured image, that controls the amount of exposure of the imaging device by performing a first process in a case where the determination unit determines that an image of a moving subject is included in the captured image, and that controls the amount of exposure of the imaging device by performing a second process in a case where the determination unit determines that no moving-subject image is included in the captured image.
