The invention relates to a chromatic aberration correction apparatus. A judgment unit judges whether a selected pixel of interest is a white overexposure pixel or not on the basis of white overexposure pixel distribution information that is held in a white overexposure distribution information memory. A white overexposure pixel judgment is made for each of pixels that make up an image. A reader reads, for each selected pixel of interest that is judged as a white overexposure pixel by the judgment unit, chromatic aberration amount distribution information for a certain area that is determined on the basis of the selected pixel of interest out of a chromatic aberration distribution information memory. An adder adds each chromatic aberration amount contained in the chromatic aberration amount distribution information that is read by the reader to a value of the corresponding position in the storage area of a chromatic aberration amount memory.
