Claim 0:
1. A radiographic imaging apparatus including an image generation unit configured to generate a radiographic image based on incident radiation, the radiographic imaging apparatus comprising:
a reception unit configured to receive irradiation preparation start information about a start of preparation for irradiation with the radiation in a radiation generation apparatus that generates the radiation; and
a selection unit configured to select a state transition mode from among a first state transition mode of changing from a stand-by state to a ready-for-imaging state based on the irradiation preparation start information and a second state transition mode of changing from the stand-by state to the ready-for-imaging state based on other information excluding the irradiation preparation start information, the selection unit selecting the state transition mode based on a state transition characteristic in changing from the stand-by state in which power consumption is lower than power consumption in the ready-for-imaging state to the ready-for-imaging state in the radiographic imaging apparatus and a radiation irradiation characteristic in changing to a ready-for-radiation-irradiation state in the radiation generation apparatus.
