An image capturing apparatus includes an image sensor, a switching unit which switches between the first read mode in which pixel signals within the first range are read out by decreasing the number of pixel signals at the first reduction ratio, and the second read mode in which pixel signals within the second range narrower than the first range are read out without reducing the pixel signals or by decreasing the number of pixel signals at the second reduction ratio lower than the first reduction ratio, and a control unit which controls the switching unit to switch between the first read mode and the second read mode in accordance with the enlargement ratio of the electronic zoom. The control unit controls to change, in accordance with whether the electronic zoom operates toward the telephoto side or wide-angled side, the zoom enlargement ratio for switching a read mode.
