ABSTRACT:
This invention can appropriately control the relationship between the electronic zoom magnification and the resolution of a displayed image in electronic zoom. An image capturing apparatus includes an image sensor which photo-electrically converts an image of an image sensing field formed by a photographing optical system, an extracting unit which extracts a part of the video image generated upon being photo-electrically converted by the image sensor, an adding unit which adds signals of respective pixels, the number of which corresponds to the luminance of the image sensing field, of a plurality of pixels of the image sensor, and a limiting unit which limits the extraction range of the video image extracted by the extracting unit, in accordance with the number of pixels added by the adding unit.
