Abstract: An imaging device includes: an imaging element having an imaging plane for light from an object to enter; a switching mechanism that switches a first transmissibility state and a second transmissibility state therebetween by varying transmissibility for the light entering the imaging plane using optical filters, a processor that controls the imaging element and the switching mechanism; and a memory that stores therein instructions to be executed by the processor. The instructions include: determining whether the first transmissibility state or the second transmissibility state is established; in the first transmissibility state, acquiring a first setting range that indicates an aperture value or a focus settable in the first transmissibility state; in the second transmissibility state, acquiring a second setting range that indicates an aperture value or a focus settable in the second transmissibility state; and limiting the aperture value or the focus based on the first or second setting range.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes: an imaging element having an imaging surface on which light from a subject is incident; a switcher switching a state of the light between first and second states, the state being changed by an optical filter; a display device; and a processor controlling the imaging element, the switcher, and the display device. The processor determines whether the state is the first or second state. In response to determining that the state is the first state, the processor controls the display device to display first information indicative of a first range of a shooting distance that is capable of being set in the first state. In response to determining that the state is the second state, the processor controls the display device to display second information indicative of a second range of the shooting distance that is capable of being set in the second state.
