Abstract
An image capture system that can ensure the rigidity and heat dissipation performance of an external connection apparatus, and also has excellent wireless communication performance. An image capture apparatus includes a first wireless communication section. An external connection apparatus includes a second wireless communication section. The second wireless communication section performs wireless communication with the first wireless communication section. The external connection apparatus is removably attached to the image capture apparatus. The first wireless communication section is disposed toward an attachment surface of the image capture apparatus to which the external connection apparatus is attached, with respect to the photographing optical axis. In a state in which the external connection apparatus is attached to the image capture apparatus, the two wireless communication sections are opposed to each other in a direction orthogonal to a direction of attaching the apparatuses to each other.
