Claim:
1. An apparatus comprising a processor executing instructions in a memory, wherein the apparatus comprises: an encoding unit configured to generate encoded image data by performing encoding processing on image data generated by an image capturing unit configured to generate the image data by capturing the image; a communication unit configured to receive, from an external apparatus, designation of a resolution of the encoded image data output from the encoding unit; a determination unit configured to determine whether the designated resolution is settable resolution as a resolution of the encoded image data output from the encoding unit in a state where image data of a first resolution is generated by the image capturing unit, if the image capturing unit is set to generate the image data of the first resolution and the communication unit receives the designation of the resolution of the encoded image data; and a control unit configured to transmit an error response to the external apparatus via the communication unit, if the determination unit determines that the designated resolution is not the settable resolution as the resolution of the encoded image data output from the encoding unit.
