An imaging apparatus (100) includes an imaging unit (103) configured to capture an image of an object to acquire image data; a display unit (107) configured to display the image captured by the imaging unit; a motion detection unit (115) configured to detect information about motion of the object and the background in a display image based on image data acquired by the imaging unit; a determination unit (116) configured to determine whether the imaging apparatus is taking a panning shot from a result detected by the motion detection unit (115); and an exposure control unit (102) configured to execute exposure control to decrease the amount of motion of the object and the background in the display image based on a result detected by the motion detection unit, wherein the exposure control unit executes exposure control based on a result detected by the motion detection unit (115) when the imaging apparatus is determined not to be taking a panning shot by the determination unit (116) and, when the imaging apparatus is determined to be taking a panning shot by the determination unit (116), executes different exposure control compared to a case when the imaging apparatus is determined not to be taking a panning shot. |
