PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for reducing power with a simple technique which is not accompanied with change of processing, in monitoring with no recording. SOLUTION: In order to solve the problem, at least a recording mode and a monitoring mode during which recording is not performed, are set and a clock stop means is set for stopping or operating a clock supplied by a video processing portion of the imaging apparatus for the unit of a color separation cycle of an imaging device in accordance with the mode. Power is then reduced by reducing an operational frequency in the monitoring mode in comparison with the recording time. COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI
