An image capture apparatus includes an image capture unit adapted to capture an image using an image pickup element, a switch adapted to instruct the image capture apparatus to start a recording process of recording a captured image to a recording medium, and a control unit adapted to determine, using a first white balance value indicating a white balance of an image captured before the switch is operated and a second white balance value indicating a white balance of an image captured after the switch is operated, whether to issue a warning to a user or not, wherein the warning allows the user to determine whether to store the captured image in the recording medium.
