Abstract

An imaging apparatus to communicate with an external apparatus via a network includes an image capturing unit, a rotation unit, a reception unit, first and second control units, a determination unit, and a control switching unit. The rotation unit rotates the image capturing unit in a predetermined direction. The reception unit receives a control command including information for designating acceleration when the rotation unit rotates the image capturing unit. The first control unit controls the rotation unit at the designated acceleration. The second control unit controls the rotation unit at acceleration that is different from the designated acceleration. The determination unit determines whether a speed at which the rotation unit rotates the image capturing unit is within a predetermined range. The control switching unit switches between the first control unit and the second control unit according to a determination result of the determination unit, and control the rotation unit.
