Abstract
An imaging apparatus configured to change an imaging direction and to perform wireless communication includes at least one memory storing instructions, and at least one processor that is configured, upon execution of the stored instructions, to act as a position identification unit configured to identify a position of a subject based on an incoming direction of a radio wave received from a wireless apparatus held by the subject, and a control unit configured to, based on the identified position of the subject, perform control to change the imaging direction based on the subject not being in a predetermined region of a captured image, and not to change the imaging direction based on the subject being in the predetermined region.
