Abstract
In an image sensing system in which a master camera and a slave camera are communicatably connected, the master camera acquires delay time information of the slave camera, indicative of delay time from the moment of reception of an exposure-start instruction signal to the moment of a start of exposure of the slave camera, and based on the acquired delay time information, controls at least one of the exposure-start timing of the master camera and the transmission timing for transmitting the exposure-start instruction signal to the slave camera.
