Abstract

An imaging apparatus is provided. The apparatus comprises a controller configured to transmit an image obtained by an image sensor to an external device via a communication circuit, and cause the external device to execute a predetermined image processing on the image. The controller obtains information indicating recommendation or non-recommendation for the execution of the predetermined image processing on the image by the external device, based on a state of at least one of an imaging optical system and the image sensor when capturing the image, and transmits an execution request for the predetermined image processing on the image to the external device via the communication circuit, if the obtained information indicates the recommendation.
