Abstract
A stereoscopic imaging apparatus includes: an objective optical system having a function of imaging a subject as a real image or a virtual image; and plural imaging optical systems that image plural subject luminous fluxes output from different paths of the objective optical system again as parallax images using plural independent optical systems, wherein, in the case where a focal length value when the objective optical system images the subject as the real image is positive and the focal length value when the objective optical system images the subject as the virtual image is negative, a focal distance (f) of the objective optical system and a distance (L) from a rear principal point of the objective optical system to a front principal point of the imaging optical system is set to values that satisfy the following equation|/()|≤1.
