1. An electronic apparatus, comprising:
a memory and at least one processor which function as:
a first setting unit configured to set a shutter speed;
a second setting unit configured to set a continuous shooting speed;
a third setting unit configured to set a shutter method from methods at least including a mechanical shutter method and an electronic shutter method;
a control unit configured to, during continuous shooting, control
so as to display, on a display, an item indicating a timing of execution of shooting together with an image, for a display time period associated with an exposure time which is set based on the shutter speed set by the first setting unit, and
so as not to display the item for a non-display time period from an end of the display time period until a start of next display time period,
wherein the control unit, in a case where a length of the exposure time is shorter than a predetermined threshold value, controls so that a display time period of the item is a first length which is independent from the exposure time,
wherein the control unit, in a case where a high continuous shooting speed is set by the second setting unit, controls so as to display the item for a number of times less than a number of shooting times in a continuous shooting, and
wherein in a case where the electronic shutter method is set for the shutter method by the third setting unit when images captured by an image capturing device are continuously displayed on the display as a live view image during the continuous shooting, the control unit controls so as to display the item on the display together with the live view image, and
in a case where the mechanical shutter method is set for the shutter method by the third setting unit when the live view image is displayed on the display during the continuous shooting, the control unit controls so as to display the live view image on the display without displaying the item on the display.
