Abstract
An image-capturing apparatus is provided. The image-capturing apparatus has an imaging sensor, a controller, and a communication interface. The controller controls operation timings of the image-capturing apparatus. The communication interface outputs an image captured by the imaging sensor and control information of the imaging sensor to the outside at timings controlled by the controller. The controller can control the operation timings of the image-capturing apparatus in accordance with a synchronization signal input to the image-capturing apparatus. The controller synchronizes the synchronization signal and the operation timings of the image-capturing apparatus before the control information is output to the outside, when an instruction to output the control information to the outside is input while the synchronization signal and the operation timings are not synchronized.
