The present disclosure includes an imaging control apparatus, an imaging control method, and an imaging apparatus. The imaging control apparatus includes a focal point detection control circuitry configured to receive first information from a range-finding area of a dedicated phase difference detection sensor and second information from a range-finding area of an image plane phase difference detection sensor, and detect a focal point based on at least one of the first information or the second information.

A finder display unit displays a live view image based on a captured image generated by an imaging unit. A digital signal processing unit detects a movement vector between frames in the live view image for a predetermined portion in the captured image. A digital signal processing unit changes a display range of the live view image on the finder display unit based on the detected movement vector of a peripheral portion in the captured image.

There is provided a camera of which operability is good regardless of the brightness of the surrounding environment. The brightness of the surrounding environment is detected by a brightness detection unit provided in a camera. The contents of settings of the camera are displayed on a sub-display 18 in a situation in which the surrounding environment is bright. The contents of settings of the camera and an image representing the set state of a shutter speed dial 33 are displayed on the sub-display 18 in a case in which the surrounding environment is dark.

The present disclosure includes an imaging control device, an imaging control method, and an imaging apparatus. The imaging control device includes a focus detection control circuitry configured to determine whether a setting area includes a portion of a dedicated phase difference detection sensor, the setting area being in a photographing range of an imaging unit. The focus detection control circuitry is further configured to set one or more ranging areas of an image plane phase difference detection sensor to one or more first ranging areas in response to determining that the setting area does not include the portion of the dedicated phase difference detection sensor.

A camera body includes a mount, a solid-state imaging element, a body control unit, a diopter value detection unit, a number-of-configurations storage unit, a rear display unit, and a finder unit. An interchangeable lens is attached to the mount. The body control unit counts the number of configurations by the diopter adjustment dial for each diopter value of the finder unit configured by the diopter adjustment dial and stores the number of configurations in the number-of-configurations storage unit. In a case where the diopter value of the finder unit has been configured by the diopter adjustment dial, the body control unit changes a configuration screen to be displayed on the rear display unit according to the number of configurations stored in the number-of-configurations storage unit.

A method and an apparatus to provide a service using a sensor and image recognition in a portable terminal that supports Augmented Reality (AR). The method includes determining whether the portable terminal is parallel to ground using an acceleration sensor. When the portable terminal is parallel to the ground, either a map including nearby Point Of Interest (POI) information or constellation information is displayed.
