Abstract
A medical observation apparatus includes: a camera configured to capture an observation object to output an imaging signal; a support configured to movably support the camera; and controller circuitry configured to control, when a normal observation mode with white light is switched to a special-light observation mode with special light, the support such that the camera is moved to a position so as to obtain a working distance that is set for the special-light observation mode and that is shorter than a working distance in the normal observation mode.
