Abstract
There is provided an image capturing apparatus. A storage unit includes a first storage region for setting a value that indicates whether communication with a lens is possible. A determination unit determines whether communication with the lens is possible. A setting unit sets a value indicating that communication with the lens is possible in the first storage region in a case where it is determined that communication with the lens is possible, and sets a value indicating that communication with the lens is not possible in the first storage region in a case where it is determined that communication with the lens is not possible. In response to a request, which designates an address of the first storage region, from a host, a transmission unit transmits a value set in the first storage region to the host.
