Abstract
There is provided an encoding apparatus. A data processing unit generates binary data by performing data processing, including binarization processing, with respect to image data that has been input from an image capturing unit. An arithmetic coding unit generates arithmetic code data by performing arithmetic coding of the binary data. A control unit performs control so as to record the arithmetic code data into a recording unit. When the image data is still image data generated during continuous shooting of still images, the control unit performs control so as to record the binary data into the recording unit without generating the arithmetic code data.
