ABSTRACT:
A method and apparatus for remotely controlling adjusting functions of an image capturing apparatus. The functions include contrast, gamma, sharpness, aperture, and contrast. A control apparatus transmits to the image capture apparatus a first command requesting a current function value of an adjusting function of the image capture apparatus and a second command requesting a remotely controllable range of the adjusting function. The control apparatus detects the current function value of the adjusting function from a response to the first command and a remotely controllable range of the adjusting function from a response to the second command. The control apparatus then displays the current function value and the remotely controllable range of the adjusting function on a display unit of the control apparatus.
