Abstract

Image pickup apparatus includes imaging control circuit, keystone correction circuit, and composite circuit. Imaging control circuit acquires plurality of first images corresponding to subject image formed on imaging plane by image pickup optical system by causing imaging element to execute exposure plurality of times in accordance with imaging instruction. Keystone correction circuit corrects keystone distortion occurring in each first image due to change of attitude of body, by keystone correction based on tilt angle corresponding to each first image, and the optical characteristic, thereby generating plurality second images. Composite circuit generates third image by compositing second images.
