Abstract

An apparatus includes a first capturing unit configured to obtain a first image; and a second capturing unit configured to obtain a second image having a wider angle of view than an angle of view of the first image. The apparatus controls each of a first display device corresponding to one eye of a user and a second display device corresponding to the other eye of the user to display an image based on the first image or the second image. In a case where no subject exists in the first image, the apparatus causes at least one of the first display device and the second display device to display the second image.
