Imaging apparatus and method for controlling the same
First Claim
1. An imaging apparatus comprising:
- a touch detection unit configured to detect a touch operation on a display unit;
a display control unit configured to control display in a same screen of the display unit;
(a) a scale;
(b) first indicators indicating a range of values settable as an exposure compensation setting, wherein the first indicators are arranged in association with the scale; and
(c) second indicators indicating a range of values settable as a bracketing value in an autobracketing shooting, an indicator indicating a reference value in the autobracketing shooting, and an indicator indicating the bracketing value, wherein the second indicators are arranged in association with the scale and the first indicators; and
a setting unit configured toset an exposure compensation value corresponding to an indicator of a touched position in a case where the touch detection unit detects a touch corresponding to a first touch area including the first indicators in the display unit, andin a case where the touch detection unit detects a touch to a second area which is wider than an area in which the second indicators are displayed and which includes the area in which the second indicators are displayed, set the bracketing value so as to widen a width between the indicator indicating the reference value and the indicator indicating the bracketing value according to the touch operation which moves to a first direction while continuing to touch irrespective of where the touch started in the second area, and set the bracketing value so as to narrow the width between the indicator indicating the reference value and the indicator indicating the bracketing value according to the touch operation which moves to a second direction which is opposite to the first direction while continuing to touch irrespective of where the touch started in the second area.

Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes a touch detection unit configured to detect a touch operation on a display unit, a display control unit configured to control display of an indicator indicating a reference value in an autobracketing shooting and an indicator indicating a bracketing value in the autobracketing shooting, a control unit configured to perform control to increase a width between the reference value and the bracketing value to be set when the touch detection unit detects a touch operation moving in a first direction while keeping touching a setting area for setting the bracketing value on the display unit and to decrease the width when the touch detection unit detects a touch operation moving in a second direction opposite the first direction while keeping touching the setting area, and a bracketing value setting unit configured to set the bracketing value based on the width.

9. A method for controlling an imaging apparatus, the method comprising:
-
detecting a touch operation on a display unit; controlling display, in a same screen of the display unit, of (a) a scale, (b) first indicators indicating a range of values settable as an exposure compensation setting, wherein the first indicators are arranged in association with the scale, and (c) second indicators indicating a range of values settable as a bracketing value in an autobracketing shooting, an indicator indicating a reference value in the autobracketing shooting, and an indicator indicating the bracketing value, wherein the second indicators are arranged in association with the scale and the first indicators; setting an exposure compensation value corresponding to an indicator of a touched position in a case where a touch corresponding to a first touch area including the first indicators in the display unit is detected; and in a case where a touch to a second area which is wider than an area in which the second indicators are displayed and which includes the area in which the second indicators are displayed is detected, setting the bracketing value so as to widen a width between the indicator indicating the reference value and the indicator indicating the bracketing value according to a touch operation which moves to a first direction while continuing to touch irrespective of where the touch started in the second area, and setting the bracketing value so as to narrow the width between the indicator indicating the reference value and the indicator indicating the bracketing value according to a touch operation which moves to a second direction which is opposite to the first direction while continuing to touch irrespective of where the touch started in the second area.
