Abstract: An image capture apparatus (1) comprises an image sensor (2) and a display device (6). The apparatus (1) generates, from an image captured by the image sensor (2), an image for display and generates, using a machine learning model, a predicted image predicting an image that would be captured later than the images of the plurality of frames. The apparatus (1) causes the display device (6) to display the image for display or the predicted image so as the display unit to function as an electronic viewfinder. The apparatus (1) determines that the predicted image is to be generated if it is determined that an exposure time for still image capturing is longer than a predetermined time, and otherwise determines that the predicted image is not to be generated.
