A light transmitting apparatus of the invention includes: a light transmitting section having a light source and an EA modulator, and a control section that controls the optical output power of the light transmitting section to be constant, based on a monitor value of EA photoelectric current. The control section uses a reference value corresponding to a wavelength of the light source, from amongst reference values of the EA photoelectric current that are different for each wavelength, and feedback controls the light transmitting section depending on a difference between the reference value and the monitor value. As a result it is possible to reliably suppress fluctuations in the optical output power due to changes in the wavelength of the light source.
