To provide an imaging apparatus capable of performing the correction of an object distance or autofocusing for an object quickly and exactly irrespective of brightness and darkness of photographing circumstances, and to provide a program therefor.
FIG2 (a) to (d) are object display frames corresponding to respective portrait photography modes, and distance information corresponding to the respective portrait photography modes is stored in a distance information table of a memory 9 (Refer to FIG2 (e)). When a user selects a portrait photography mode, an object display frame corresponding to the selected portrait photography mode is displayed on an image display section 12. The user can adjust the object to be photographed in the object display frame while observing the object display frame (Refer to FIG2 (f)). Then, when a shutter button is depressed, the distance information corresponding to the selected portrait photography mode is read out from the distance information table, and the focus lens is driven on the basis of the readout distance information.
