Abstract:
An image capture apparatus includes an image capture unit, a communication unit, and a control unit which communicates with an external device by first or second communication systems. The first system maintains communication connection even if the apparatus and device are not in a predetermined operational mode for executing image transmission processing. The second system maintains communication connection if the apparatus and device are in the predetermined mode. The control unit can automatically transmit a photographed image to an external device through the communication unit by the second communication system, and switch and control first and second functional modes for enabling and disabling a photography function, respectively. Where an image is photographed in the first mode, the control unit records the image as a target for automatic transmission. If the transmission target image is recorded, automatic transmission is not started during the first mode, and started during the second mode.

Claim (Index 6):
The image capture apparatus according to  claim 2 , wherein the control unit is further configured to:\n switch and control a third power mode that is a power mode for disabling both of the photography function and the communication function in relation to image transmission, in addition to the first power mode and the second power mode; and in a case in which a predetermined period of time has elapsed without any user operation, or in a case in which the user instructs transition to the low power consumption mode, perform transition to the second power mode when the communication unit starts automatic transmission of the transmission target image to the external device, and perform transition to the third power mode when the communication unit does not start automatic transmission of the transmission target image to the external device.
