Abstract
An exposure control apparatus accepts a specification of a shutter speed, determines, based on the specified shutter speed, a first accumulation time in which an image sensor accumulates a charge for image capture during a live view, determines, based on the specified shutter speed, a second accumulation time in which the image sensor accumulates a charge for image capture when obtaining a still image; and controls the image sensor to accumulate a charge over the first accumulation time or the second accumulation time. The accumulation time that can be set in the image sensor differs between during the live view and when obtaining a still image, and the first determination unit varies a method of determining the first accumulation time according to whether or not the specified shutter speed is longer than a predetermined shutter speed.
