1. An image capturing system comprising:
- a sensor unit that is worn on an user and includes a first motion sensor that detects motion of the user; and
a subject tracking apparatus that is provided in a camera platform on which an imaging apparatus is mounted, includes a second motion sensor that detects motion of the camera platform, and controls the motion of the camera platform by using the second motion sensor based on the motion of the user detected by the first motion sensor to allow the imaging apparatus to track a subject.

7. An image capturing method using a sensor unit that is worn on an user and includes a first motion sensor that detects motion of the user and a subject tracking apparatus that is provided in a camera platform on which an imaging apparatus is mounted, includes a second motion sensor that detects motion of the camera platform, and controls the motion of the camera platform by using the second motion sensor based on the motion of the user detected by the first motion sensor to allow the imaging apparatus to track a subject, the method comprising:
-
making an adjustment in such a way that in a state in which the user and the imaging apparatus look at a reference point that is a still subject from the same position, the imaging apparatus captures an image of the reference point; and making an adjustment in such a way that in a state in which the user looks at the reference point from a position away from the imaging apparatus, the imaging apparatus captures an image of the reference point.
