A pantoscopic imaging apparatus includes first and second imaging units. First and second images simultaneously captured by the respective imaging units are displayed as live-view images in a dual-screen fashion on an LCD. Overlapping areas between the first and second images, which overlap with each other when the first and second images are synthesized to produce a panoramic image, are detected. A distance of the nearest subject to the imaging apparatus is determined among those subjects contained in the overlapping areas. If the nearest subject distance is less a predetermined threshold value, the nearest subject is displayed in a specific pattern within each of the live-view images, to give an alert to a potential error that would be caused by parallax in the panoramic image before it is produced from the first and second images.
