An image-pickup apparatus includes a first detector configured to generate
first information corresponding to a contrast state of a picked-up image,
a second detector configured to detect second information that is used
for focus control and different from the first information, a controller
configured to provide the focus control, and a first operating member
operable by a user, wherein the controller provides the focus control
that uses the first information but does not use the second information
when the first operating member is not operated, and provides the focus
control that uses at least the second information when the operating
member is operated.
