Abstract

A camera system includes a plurality of camera devices and a switching device. The switching device transmits a reference signal to the camera devices via a network. Each of the camera devices transmits a video signal based on the time when the camera device receives the reference signal. The switching device determines one or more priority images for transmitting video signals with priority, in accordance with operation by a user. The camera system has a configuration in which transmission of a video signal from each of one or more of the camera devices not capturing the one or more priority images is delayed relative to transmission of a video signal from each of one or more of the camera devices capturing the one or more priority images.
