Claim 14:
15. A control method of an image processing apparatus that comprises one or more processors and/or circuitry which functions as a first processor that processes an image signal output from an image sensor and a second processor, connected in downstream of the first processor, that processes an image signal transferred from the first processor, the method comprising:
selecting the first processor and/or the second processor to be used to perform a predetermined process on the image signal output from the image sensor based on a predetermined condition; and
processing the image signal by the selected first processor and/or second processor,
wherein an operation of the second processor stopped in a case where the first processor is selected,
the first processor transfers the image signal to the second processor without processing the image signal in a case where the second processor is selected,
the predetermined condition includes an instruction for live view display, and
the first processor is selected in a case where the live view display is instructed.
