Abstract:
A control apparatus includes a focus detector configured to perform focus detection based on an image signal obtained via a first optical system, the first optical system having a shallowest depth of field in a plurality of optical systems having focal lengths different from each other, and a controller configured to perform focus control of the plurality of optical systems based on an output signal from the focus detector.

Claim (Index 27):
An image pickup apparatus comprising:\n an image pickup element configured to photoelectrically convert an optical image formed via at least one of a plurality of imaging optical systems, a plurality of imaging optical systems having focal lengths different from each other; a focus detector configured to perform focus detection based on an image signal obtained via a first imaging optical system, the first imaging optical system having a shallowest depth of field in the plurality of imaging optical systems; and a controller configured to:\n obtain an output signal from the focus detector, the output signal being generated based on the image signal obtained via the first imaging optical system, and \n determine, based on the output signal, position information of a second focus unit of a second imaging optical system, the second imaging optical system being different from the first imaging optical system and included in the plurality of imaging optical systems.
