Abstract:
1. An imaging apparatus, comprising: an image sensor configured to output first RAW data having a first frame rate; a signal processor configured to perform a signal processing including a simultaneously forming processing and a white balance processing; and circuitry configured to in a recording process of the first RAW data onto a recording medium, (a) convert the first RAW data output from the image sensor into second RAW data having a second frame rate which is lower than the first frame rate, (b) control the signal processor to perform the signal processing on the second RAW data to output a camera-through image being captured for display at the second frame rate, and (c) record the first RAW data output from the image sensor onto the recording medium without converting the first RAW data into the second RAW data and without performing the simultaneously forming processing and the white balance processing by the signal processor, in a reproducing process of the first RAW data recorded on the recording medium, (a) read the first RAW data from the recording medium without converting the first RAW data into the second RAW data, and (b) control the signal processor to perform the signal processing on the first RAW data read from the recording medium to output a slow motion reproduced image for display at the second frame rate.
