Title: Imaging apparatus and control method for the same
Inventor: KADOHARA TERUTAKE
IPC: G02B7/28
Filed: 2017-05-15
Abstract: To perform more accurate focusing determination, in an imaging apparatus having an AF function of a phase difference detection system.SOLUTION: The imaging apparatus performs focus detection based on a phase difference from a pair of subject images obtained by pupil-dividing light from a subject made incident through an imaging optical system. The control part of the imaging apparatus performs focus detection arithmetic on the basis of the output of an AF sensor (S103). Photometric processing using a photometric sensor is performed in parallel to focus detection processing. When it is determined that a focusing state is obtained by focusing determination (S104), the determination processing of an evaluation value based on a signal read from the photometric sensor is performed (S105). In a S106, the control part judges whether the focusing determination in the S104 is proper or not. When it is determined that the blur of a captured image is in a large state in the S106, the control part invalidates the result of the focusing determination in the S104 (S107). When it is determined that the blur of the captured image is not in the large state in the S106, the control part validates the result of the focusing determination in the S104.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1
