1. An imaging apparatus capable of imaging using a self-timer, comprising: an imaging section; an imaging area setting section which sets photographic subjects intended to be positioned on both ends of an imaging area; and an imaging control section which identifies the photographic subjects intended to be positioned on both ends of the imaging area which have been set by the imaging area setting section, and captures an image by controlling an image viewing angle of the imaging section so that the photographic subjects are included within the imaging area, when imaging using the self-timer is performed.
