In an imaging apparatus, a pupil division optical system includes a first pupil transmitting light of a first wavelength band and a second pupil transmitting light of a second wavelength band different from the first wavelength band. An imaging device is configured to capture an image of light transmitted through the pupil division optical system and a first color filter having a first transmittance characteristic and light transmitted through the pupil division optical system and a second color filter having a second transmittance characteristic partially overlapping the first transmittance characteristic, and output the captured image. A processor is configured to generate a monochrome correction image or a correction image by correcting a value that is based on components overlapping between the first transmittance characteristic and the second transmittance characteristic for the captured image.

Imaging apparatus and endoscope apparatus

In an endoscope device, a control unit brings an imaging device into an operation in a first read-out mode. In the first read-out mode, the imaging device reads out pixel signals from a plurality of pixels in a first time. After an instruction for the measurement of a subject is generated, the control unit brings the imaging device into an operation in a second read-out mode. In the second read-out mode, the imaging device reads out the pixel signals from the plurality of pixels in a second time. The second time is shorter than the first time. The control unit causes an imaging condition switching unit to switch imaging conditions on the basis of an operation of the imaging device in the second read-out mode.
