Patent ID: 8842193

Claim:
An imaging apparatus comprising: an image capture unit configured to output 60 frames of moving image signals per second; a generating unit configured to generate a first moving image signal and a second moving image signal, each signal at 30 frames per second, from the 60-frames-per-second moving image signals output from the image capture unit, the generating unit assigning an even frame of the 60-frames-per-second moving image signals output from the image capture unit to the first moving image signal and an odd frame thereof to the second moving image signal; a plurality of output units each configured to output moving image signals in accordance with a Serial Digital Interface format, the plurality of output units comprising a first output unit configured to output the first moving image signal generated by the generating unit and a second output unit configured to output the second moving image signal generated by the generating unit; and a control unit configured to control an output operation by the first output unit and the second output unit such that the second moving image signal is output by the second output unit in parallel with an output of the first moving image signal by the first output unit, wherein the control unit controls an output timing of the first moving image signal and an output timing of the second moving image signal such that a frame included in the first moving image signal and a frame included in the second moving image signal are output at an identical timing.
