The purpose is to provide a camera lens control device that enables iris link between a plurality of cameras even when iris link using a CCU is not available. According to the present disclosure, provided is a camera lens control device comprising first and second control units that can communicate with each other, wherein the first control unit is configured to communicate with a first lens device attached to a first camera, the second control unit is configured to communicate with a second lens device attached to a second camera, the iris positions of the first and second lens devices are configured to change in conjunction with each other through communication of the first and second control units, and the first control unit is configured to communicate with the first lens device without passing through the first camera.

A lens barrel includes an imaging optical system, a diaphragm operation ring, and click-stop mechanisms. The click-stop mechanism includes a first spherical body, first fitting portions, and a first biasing member. The click-stop mechanism includes a second spherical body, second fitting portions, and a second biasing member. The first spherical body is fitted to the first fitting portion in a case in which the diaphragm operation ring is set to a position corresponding to main series. The second spherical body is fitted to the second fitting portion in a case in which the diaphragm operation ring is set to a position corresponding to subordinate series.

An imaging device includes an imaging unit that images a subject and generates image data, an image processor that performs predetermined image processing on the image data generated by the imaging unit, a storage unit in which items of setting information concerning a setting for photographing set by a user are stored, and a controller that controls the imaging unit and the image processor. At a time of photographing, the controller extracts setting information corresponding to a photographing scene from among the items of setting information stored in the storage unit and causes icon for selecting the extracted setting information to be displayed on display unit. Icon includes a thumbnail image generated based on an image acquired when each of the items of the setting information set by the user is stored.

An image capture apparatus with a pre-capture function for generating still image data pieces at a predetermined interval during a pre-capture period between detection of a first shooting instruction and detection of a second shooting instruction, is disclosed. The apparatus determines, within the pre-capture period, a period in which one or more pre-captured still image data pieces are to be recorded in association with a still image data piece generated in response to the detection of the second shooting instruction. The period is determined based on a difference between (i) a time of the detection of the first shooting instruction, or a shooting time of an image data piece selected by a user from among the pre-captured still image data pieces, and (ii) a time of the detection of the second shooting instruction.
