    Abstract: Imaging apparatus (100) includes selectors (115, 120) that select sound signals having a set number of channels, and a control unit. When a number of channels is set to two at time of recording sound signals, the control unit, according to a first format, records sound data generated based on selected sound signals for two channels, on one sound track included in a video file. When the number of channels is set to four, the control unit, does not record two pieces of sound data respectively on two sound tracks included in one video file in accordance with the first format.

    Abstract: Provided is a sound pick-up device which includes: a housing having a sound hole; a main microphone which is disposed in the inside of the housing, receives sound pressure from the outside of the housing through the sound hole, and generates a first sound signal; a reference microphone which is disposed in the inside of the housing and in a proximity of the main microphone and generates a second sound signal; a first shield which blocks between the inside of the housing and the inside of the main microphone; a second shield which blocks between the outside of the housing and the inside of the reference microphone; and a third shield which blocks between the inside of the housing and the inside of the reference microphone.

    Abstract: An imaging device includes an optical system including a movable lens, an image capture unit configured to capture a subject image through the optical system, a sound-collecting microphone, and a control unit configured to control the optical system and the image capture unit and to receive an sound signal from the microphone. The imaging device has a first mode and a second mode as moving-image shooting modes. The control unit makes the movable lens move faster in the first mode than in the second mode when a moving image is captured. The control unit filters the sound signal with a narrower-band filter in the first mode than in the second mode.

    Abstract: A sound signal processing apparatus includes: first amplifier which amplifies a sound signal, depending on an input level of the sound signal; and second amplifier which amplifies with a gain the sound signal amplified by first amplifier. Second amplifier automatically decreases the gain when a level of the sound signal is greater than an upper limit threshold, and second amplifier automatically increases the gain when the level of the sound signal is lower than the upper limit threshold and when the gain is lower than a predetermined value. When second amplifier increases the gain, second amplifier changes the gain at a first speed when a user has performed an operation to decrease the input level, and second amplifier changes the gain at a second speed lower than the first speed when the user has not performed the operation to decrease the input level.
