An image capturing apparatus to perform pan-tilt driving includes a detection unit, an obtaining unit, and a setting unit. The detection unit detects a movable range end in a case where the pan-tilt driving is performed. The obtaining unit obtains information about a speed of the pan-tilt driving in a case where the movable range end is detected by the detection unit. The setting unit sets a reference position according to the driving speed information obtained by the obtaining unit.
