The invention provides an image processing device, an imaging device, an image processing method, and a non-transitory computer readable recording medium recorded with an image processing program which can ensure a split image with a simple structure. A control unit selects the pixels in a 3n-th (n is an integer equal to or greater than 0) row as a first pixel group which functions as left phase difference pixels and reads a signal charge generated in a photodiode (PDL). The control unit selects the pixels in a (3n+2)-th row as a second pixel group which functions as right phase difference pixels and reads a signal charge generated in a photodiode (PDR). The control unit selects the pixels in a (3n+1)-th row as a third pixel group which functions as normal pixels, adds the signal charges generated in the photodiodes (PDL and PDR) and reads the sum of the signal charges.
