A selection section selects one of a plurality of exposure periods different from each other based on the measurement result in each of the plurality of regions. An image data generation section performs exposure for each of the plurality of regions over the selected exposure period to generate image data. An image processing section adjusts a value of the image data generated for each of the plurality of regions based on the measurement result.
