Abstract
An electronic apparatus attachable to an accessory includes a power supply unit, and a control unit for controlling the power supply unit. The electronic apparatus can transition from a normal operating state to a power-saving state that includes a first power-saving state in which a power supply switch of the electronic apparatus is turned off, and a second power-saving state in which a non-operating state continues for a predetermined time. The control unit receives first information indicating whether or not the power supply from the electronic apparatus to the accessory is requested in the first power-saving state, and second information indicating whether or not the power supply from the electronic apparatus to the accessory is requested in the second power-saving state. The control unit causes the power supply unit to supply the power in the power-saving state where the power supply is requested.
