3 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is attached to the image pickup apparatus, the display control unit is configured to display a second setting screen related to a setting of the external light emission unit on the display unit in accordance with the operation of the operating member regardless of a position of the built-in light emission unit.
4 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a movement control unit configured to perform a control for moving the built-in light emission unit based on operating the operating member by the user, wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is not attached to the image pickup apparatus, the movement control unit is configured to cause the built-in light emission unit to move from the non-light emission position to the light emission position in accordance with the operation of the operating member in a state in which the built-in light emission unit is located at the non-light emission position.
5 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 3 , further comprising:
wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is not attached to the image pickup apparatus and in a case where the first detection unit detects that the built-in light emission unit is located at the non-light emission position in accordance with the operation of the operating member, the movement control unit is configured to cause the built-in light emission unit to move from the non-light emission position to the light emission position, and wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is not attached to the image pickup apparatus and in a case where the first detection unit detects that the built-in light emission unit is located at the light emission position in accordance with the operation of the operating member, the display control unit is configured to display the first setting screen on the display unit.
6 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 4 , further comprising:
a second detection unit configured to detect that the external light emission unit is connected to the image pickup apparatus, wherein the display control unit is configured to display the second setting screen regardless of a detection result of the first detection unit in a case where the second detection unit detects that the external light emission unit is connected to the image pickup apparatus in accordance with the operation of the operating member.
7 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the second setting screen includes a screen different from the first setting screen.
8 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 5 , wherein the movement control unit is configured to cause the built-in light emission unit not to move from the non-light emission position to the light emission position in a case where the first detection unit detects that the built-in light emission unit is located at the non-light emission position and the second detection unit detects that the external light emission unit is connected to the image pickup apparatus in accordance with the operation of the operating member.
9 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the display control unit is configured to display a screen indicating that the setting of the built-in light emission unit or the external light emission unit is not available on the display unit in accordance with the operation of the operating member in a state in which a mode in which settings of the built-in light emission unit and the external light emission unit are not available is set in the image pickup apparatus.
10 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 2 , wherein the display control unit is configured to display a screen for performing a setting as to whether or not light emission by the built-in light emission unit and the external light emission unit can be performed on the display unit in accordance with the operation of the operating member in a state in which the setting where light emission by the built-in light emission unit and the external light emission unit is not performed is set in the image pickup apparatus.
11 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 , wherein the operating member is a pop-up switch that moves the built-in light emission unit from the non-light emission position to the light emission position.
12 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the light emission position is a position where light emission by the built-in light emission unit is allowed, and wherein the non-light emission position is a position other than the light emission position where the built-in light emission unit can move.
13 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 1 ,
wherein the light emission position is a position where the built-in light emission unit is exposed from the image pickup apparatus, and wherein the non-light emission position is a position where the built-in light emission unit is housed in the image pickup apparatus.
14 . The image pickup apparatus according to claim 12 , wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is attached to the image pickup apparatus, the built-in light emission unit does not move to the light emission position.
15 . A control method for an image pickup apparatus that is able to attach an external light emission unit and including a built-in light emission unit configured to be able to move to a light emission position and a non-light emission position and an operating member operable by the user, the control method comprising:
controlling a setting screen on a display unit, wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is not attached to the image pickup apparatus, the built-in light emission unit is configured to move from the non-light emission position to the light emission position without displaying a first setting screen related to a setting of the built-in light emission unit in accordance with an operation of the operating member in a state in which the built-in light emission unit is located at the non-light emission position, wherein, in a case where the external light emission unit is not attached to the image pickup apparatus, displaying the first setting screen on the display unit without moving the built-in light emission in accordance with the operation of the operating member unit in a state in which the built-in light emission unit is located at the light emission position.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
