Electronic equipment includes an obtaining unit configured to obtain a third image in which a first image captured via a first optical system and a second image captured via a second optical system are arranged side by side, the second image having parallax with the first image and a setting unit configured to set, in the third image, a target area to which predetermined processing is to be applied, based on a user operation. The setting unit is configured to set the target area in such a manner that the item indicating the target area includes either one of the first image and the second image.

A device is operable to output, regarding a subject, a pair of captured images pertaining to binocular stereopsis. The device obtains, regarding a plurality of capturing systems arranged to be a predetermined distance apart, a group of captured images in which the subject is captured, wherein the device obtains, regarding at least one capturing system among the plurality of capturing systems, a plurality of captured images pertaining to luminous fluxes that have each passed a different pupil region, determines, regarding the pair of captured images, a baseline length to be set, and selects, from among the group of obtained captured images, the pair of captured images based on the determined baseline length to be set and output the pair of captured images.

There is provided an image processing apparatus comprising. An obtainment unit obtains a first circular fisheye image accompanied by a first missing region in which no pixel value is present. A generation unit generates a first equidistant cylindrical projection image by performing first equidistant cylindrical transformation processing based on the first circular fisheye image. The generation unit generates the first equidistant cylindrical projection image such that a first corresponding region corresponding to the first missing region has a pixel value in the first equidistant cylindrical projection image.
