An information processing apparatus comprising: control means including a focus control position recording unit and configured to control an image capturing means and a camera platform apparatus comprising moving means configured to move the image capturing means, the image capturing means and the moving means being controlled to acquire captured images such that an image capturing direction is sequentially moved with respect to an object given as an image capturing target and image capturing is performed in each of moved image capturing directions thereby acquiring an image of each section of the object; and an AF distance measurement module configured to measure a distance to the object via an optical lens unit of the image capturing means and determine a focus control position; wherein the control means is configured to control the image capturing means to perform an operation, the operation comprising: recording the focus control position in the focus control position recording unit for each of the sections of the object whose images are captured by the image capturing means in the respective image capturing directions; characterised by in a case where in capturing of an image of a section whose image in focus is not yet captured, a focusing operation by an autofocus function of the image capturing means is not successful because the AF distance measurement module fails to measure a distance to the object, acquiring the recorded focus control position employed as a result of AF focusing by the image capturing apparatus in capturing an image of a previous section and setting an allowable range of the focus control position for the section whose image in focus is not yet captured based on the recorded focus control position acquired for the previous section; and performing focus bracketing image capturing on the section whose image in focus is not yet captured such that a plurality of images of the section are captured while changing the focus control position within the set allowable range. control means including a focus control position recording unit and configured to control an image capturing means and a camera platform apparatus comprising moving means configured to move the image capturing means, the image capturing means and the moving means being controlled to acquire captured images such that an image capturing direction is sequentially moved with respect to an object given as an image capturing target and image capturing is performed in each of moved image capturing directions thereby acquiring an image of each section of the object;
