Abstract

To enable remote operation of an imaging apparatus that can also function as a control device without compromising convenience.SOLUTION: The imaging apparatus used in an imaging system that remotely operates multiple imaging apparatus via a control device, includes a control unit that controls a first function to perform operations including changing its own imaging apparatus settings on the basis of instructions from an external control device, and a second function to issue operation instructions to other external imaging apparatuses. The control unit restricts the first function compared to other imaging apparatuses that have the first function but lack the second function.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4
