Image capturing apparatus and image capturing method

An image capture apparatus and an image capture method are disclosed. The image capture apparatus automatically sets an image capture mode according to a state of a subject or surrounding environment, and a user changes set values of image processing options of the set image capture mode as needed, thereby satisfying both convenience of an auto mode and flexibility of a manual mode. To this end, the image capture apparatus comprises: a scene mode selection unit that analyzes a live view image according to a preset scene selection algorithm and selects a scene mode according to the analysis result; a display unit that displays a user interface to select an image processing option related to the selected scene mode and to change a set value of the selected image processing option; and a controller that receives the changed set value of the selected image processing option before an image is captured in the selected scene mode, and captures the live view image by applying the changed set value in the scene mode.
