A light condensing process for condensing rays to be incident to a virtual lens having a synthetic aperture configured from a plurality of image pickup sections that pick up images of a plurality of visual points from a real space point in a real space on a virtual sensor through an emulation lens of an emulation target is performed. The light condensing process is performed using lens information that is generated for a real space point corresponding to a plurality of information points that are a plurality of positions of part of a plane of the virtual sensor and defines rays that pass the emulation lens.
