1. An imaging apparatus having a processor executing instructions in a memory, wherein the instruction causing the processor to function comprises:
an imaging unit configured to capture an image of an object to output image data; an acquisition unit configured to acquire information about a brightness of the object; and a determination unit configured to determine an exposure control value to be used in a shooting operation based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit about the brightness of the object, wherein the imaging unit is configured to obtain a plurality of image data, for image combining processing, by performing a plurality of shooting operations including a light emission shooting operation, performed while causing a light emitting device to emit light, and a non-light emission shooting operation, performed without causing the light emitting device to emit light, wherein the determination unit is configured to determine exposure control values for the light emission shooting operation and the non-light emission shooting operation based on the information acquired by the acquisition unit about the brightness of the object from a preliminary light emission performed by the light emitting device, and wherein the determination unit is configured to determine the exposure control value for the light emission shooting operation before the light emission shooting operation is performed and determine the exposure control value for the non-light emission shooting operation before the non-light emission shooting operation is performed. |
