ABSTRACT:
An image capturing apparatus in which the ratio between the brightness just before preliminary light emission and the brightness at preliminary light emission is calculated for each of a plurality of photometric areas. The highest ratio among the ratios in the areas is extracted as a reference value, the extracted reference value is compared with the ratio in each area, and a weighting coefficient in each area is calculated. By using the obtained weighting coefficient, the amount of light to be emitted for obtaining correct exposure is calculated.
