Abstract:
1. An image capturing apparatus comprising: a first image capturing unit configured to shoot an object side; a second image capturing unit configured to shoot a photographer side; and a control unit configured to, in a shooting mode, in which both the first image capturing unit and the second image capturing unit shoot, perform first recording processing when a setting meets a predetermined condition upon shooting and perform second recording processing when the setting does not meet the predetermined condition upon shooting, wherein the first recording processing corresponds to processing of image data captured by the first image capturing unit and image data captured by the second image capturing unit in association with each other, wherein the second recording processing corresponds to processing of image data captured by the first image capturing unit without associating the image data captured by the first image capturing unit with image data captured by the second image capturing unit, processing of image data captured by the first image capturing unit but not image data captured by the second image capturing unit, or controlling to record image data captured by the first image capturing unit and not to perform image capturing by the second image capturing unit, and wherein the predetermined condition is whether a self-timer has been set, and if the self-timer has not been set, the control unit performs the first recording processing.
