Abstract: A camera control apparatus of this embodiment has the following arrangement. Pan buttons (42, 44), tilt buttons (46, 48), a home position button (50), a telephoto button (52), and a wide-angle button (54) are set on a camera operation window (40). A rectangular frame (56) indicates the maximum image sensable range based on pan, tilt, and zoom operations. An image sensable range based on the current pan, tilt, and zoom values is displayed as a rectangular frame (or rectangular box) having a size corresponding to the zoom value at a position corresponding to the pan and tilt angles within the rectangular frame (56). Desired image sensing directions and the like are registered at preset memory buttons (60) (60-1-60-6). A register button (62) for registration of such data and a delete button (64) for deleting the registered data are also set on the camera operation window.
