1. An image processing apparatus, comprising:
a central processing unit (CPU) configured to:
select, in a case in which a plurality of multiple captured images for recording are continuously captured, whether to perform a black out-free live view display or to perform a black out live view display, based on a shutter speed for at least one of the plurality of captured images and a shutter speed of at least one of a plurality of inter-frame images, wherein
the black out-free live view display sequentially displays at least one of the plurality of captured images and at least one of the plurality of inter-frame images,
the plurality of inter-frame images are captured between a capturing operation of a first captured image and a capturing operation of a second captured image,
the first captured image and the second captured image are not for a recording operation, and
the black out live view display for alternately provides a backout display period in which no image is displayed and a display period in which at least one of the plurality of inter-frame images are sequentially displayed.
