IMAGE PICKUP SYSTEM AND LENS APPARATUS
First Claim
1. An image pickup system comprising:
- a lens apparatus; and
a camera configured to perform moving image pickup of objects in an image pickup area through the lens apparatus,wherein the lens apparatus includes a ranging sensor configured to simultaneously detect object distances in plural ranging areas set in the image pickup area,wherein the image pickup system includes an output image generator configured to generate an output moving image containing (a) a captured moving image captured by the camera and (b) distance information showing at least one of the object distance detected by the ranging sensor in each of the plural ranging areas and a difference between the detected object distances, andwherein the ranging sensor is a phase difference detector which is configured to detect a phase difference between object images formed with light entering the lens apparatus.

Abstract
The image pickup system includes a lens apparatus (1) and a camera (2) configured to perform image pickup of objects in an image pickup area using the lens apparatus. The lens apparatus includes a ranging sensor (120) configured to simultaneously detect object distances in plural ranging areas set in the image pickup area. The image pickup system includes an output image generator (203) configured to generate an output image containing (a) a captured image captured by the camera and (b) distance information showing at least one of the object distance detected by the ranging sensor in each of the plural ranging areas and a difference between the detected object distances. The image pickup system is capable of displaying the object distances to plural objects or a difference therebetween without performing focusing for the respective objects.
