1. A camera control system comprising:
- an image reception terminal apparatus comprising, a determination device constructed to receive information from an image transmission terminal apparatus of a selected camera, the information indicating whether or not the selected camera is controllable, said determination device further being constructed to determine whether or not the selected camera is controllable on the basis of the received information, and a display controller that displays a camera operation interface that has functions to input a control command to control the selected camera, and that changes a display state of the camera operation interface between a first display state for the selected camera corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is controllable and a second display state for the selected camera, the second display state being different from the first and corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is not controllable, and wherein the image transmission terminal apparatus comprises a camera and a transmission device that transmits information as to whether or not the camera is controllable.

14. An image reception terminal apparatus comprising:
-
a determination device constructed to receive information from an image transmission terminal apparatus of a selected camera, the information indicating whether or not the selected camera is controllable, said determination device further being constructed to determine whether or not the selected camera is controllable on the basis of the received information; and
a display controller that displays a camera operation interface that has functions to input a control command to control the selected camera, and that changes a display state of the camera operation interface between a first display state for the selected camera corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is controllable and a second display state for the selected camera, the second display state being different from the first and corresponding to determination that the selected camera is not controllable. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 31, 32, 33, 37)

27. A storage medium which stores a program, providing the processing functions of:
-
receiving information which indicates whether or not a selected camera is controllable from an image transmission terminal apparatus of a selected camera;
determining whether or not the selected camera is controllable, on the basis of the received information;
performing display control for displaying a camera operation interface that has functions to input a control command to control the selected camera; and
changing a display state of the camera operation interface between a first display state for the selected camera corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is controllable and a second display state for the selected camera, the second display state being different from the first and corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is not controllable; and
displaying an image received from the image transmission terminal apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (28, 34, 38)

29. A camera control method comprising the steps of:
-
receiving information which indicates whether or not a selected camera is controllable from an image transmission apparatus of the selected camera;
determining whether or not the selected camera is controllable, on the basis of the received information;
displaying a camera operation interface that has functions to input a control command to control the selected camera;
changing a display state of the camera operation interface between a first display state for the selected camera corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is controllable and a second display state for the selected camera, the second display state being different from the first and corresponding to a determination that the selected camera is not controllable; and
displaying an image received from the image transmission terminal apparatus. - View Dependent Claims (30, 35, 39)
