Abstract:
1. An imaging device configured to output imaging data that is obtained by imaging an object, the imaging device comprising: a recording unit configured to record the imaging data on a recording medium; a communication unit configured to communicate with an external recording device; and a control unit configured to recognize a controlled state of the external recording device when a communication is enabled with the external recording device through the communication unit conforming to a predetermined transmission method, wherein the control unit is configured to transmit a start-up request for launching a previously installed recording application to the external recording device, in which by the launching of the previously installed recording application automatically in response to the start-up request for the launching of the application the imaging device is controlled by the external recording device, by a control command transmitted from the external recording device to the imaging device automatically in response to the start-up request for the launching of the application, to transmit the imaging data to the external recording device through the communication unit for recording of the imaging data at the external recording device, wherein the external recording device is configured to record the imaging data obtained through the communication unit based on the previously installed recording application executed.
