Abstract
An imaging apparatus captures a first image with a first exposure time, captures a second image with a second exposure time shorter than the first exposure time, and determines either the first image and the second image as an image to be used for the calculation of a motion vector depending on a result of the detection of flicker based on the first image and the second image. Then, the imaging apparatus calculates a motion vector based on the determined image.
