An obtaining unit obtains two pieces of coordinate information about optical axes of the photographing modules from the photographing modules. A storage unit stores positional information about the attachment regions. A calculation unit calculates a base length by obtaining the coordinate information about the optical axes and the positional information about the attachment regions in a case where one of a state of the photographing modules and a state of the body of the electronic apparatus changes.
