The present invention relates to enhancing the image capturing devices, and to enhance the image producing devices, in such a way that they can capture and produce 3D images without the need of any gear to be worn by the viewers. The proposed solution is inspired by ray optics, geometry, mirrors, diamond cuts, eyes, rods & cones of human eyes, and retina design of human eyes. It doesn't “trick” the eyes and brain, it doesn't manipulate the images like current technologies do to give the 3D effect. The invention describes how the light sensors and light emitters, and their layouts to be changed in imaging devices like cameras and TV screens, to capture and produce 3D images, whether or not the directional information can be captured by image sensors and emitters.

A control apparatus provided in a lens apparatus controls a plurality of optical systems each including an aperture diaphragm which is variable in aperture diameter. A lens control unit sets driving amount information regarding the respective driving amounts of the aperture diaphragms, and sets driving speed of each of the aperture diaphragms based on the driving amount information. The lens control unit determines the driving speeds of the respective aperture diaphragms such that driving times of the aperture diaphragms of the plurality of optical systems match each other.

An imaging system includes a processor, a first imaging apparatus including a first optical system, and a second imaging apparatus including a second optical system. A focal length of the first optical system is longer than a focal length of the second optical system. The processor performs registration between a first captured image obtained by imaging with the first imaging apparatus and a second captured image obtained by imaging with the second imaging apparatus, in at least two locations including an end part of an angle of view used for imaging with the imaging system, and acquires angle-of-view related information that is related to the angle of view based on a registration result.
