Abstract
In an image capturing apparatus which can be remotely operated from an operation terminal, to carry out image transmission control in accordance a communication form between the image capturing apparatus and the operation terminal. An image capturing apparatus 2 has a judging section 244, and judges a communication form between an operation terminal with which the image capturing apparatus 2 communicates. The transmission control section 243 carries out a control regarding transmission of an image based on a result of judgment by the judging section 244. When the current communication form is judged as low-speed communication from the result of judgment, the transmission control section 244 performs a process such as decreasing the operation speed of panning, tilting and zooming of the image taking section 21 or decreasing the resolution of an image to be transmitted. When the current communication form is judged as being of an amount-dependent charge system from the result of judgment, a process such as decreasing the frame rate of image transmission or increasing the compression rate of image is performed.
