Abstract:
1. A radiographic imaging apparatus comprising: a radiation generator configured to irradiate an object with radiation; a detection unit configured to detect the radiation generated by the radiation generator and transmitted through the object, thereby shooting a radiographic image; and a control unit configured to control radiographic imaging by the radiation generator and the detection unit, the detection unit comprising: a first connection unit configured to be used to connect the control unit when used portably; a second connection unit configured to be used to connect the control unit when stationarily used on a support portion; a connection destination detection unit configured to detect which one of the first connection unit and the second connection unit is used to connect the control unit; and a determination unit configured to determine a shooting operation based on a detection result of the connection destination detection unit, wherein upon detecting connection by the first connection unit, the determination unit makes a frame rate of shooting lower than that in connection by the second connection unit.
