A camera system includes a light source having a peak emission wavelength at room temperature in a near-infrared region, and an imaging device including a photoelectric conversion element that converts near-infrared light into an electric charge. An external quantum efficiency of the photoelectric conversion element has a first peak at a first wavelength longer than the peak emission wavelength, and the external quantum efficiency at the first wavelength is higher than the external quantum efficiency at the peak emission wavelength.

An apparatus that is capable of displaying a good live view image even during continuous emission photographing. The apparatus includes a sensor, a memory device that stores a set of instructions, and at least one processor that executes the set of instructions to obtain a display image cyclically using the sensor, and obtain a flash control image accompanied with a pre-emission of a first flash unit using the sensor at a non-accumulation timing at which the sensor does not perform charge accumulation for cyclic obtainment of the display image.

An example stand for an electronic device includes a base, a column extending upward from the base, a camera coupled to the column, and an interface supported on the column that is to engage with the electronic device to suspend the electronic device on the column.
