Abstract
An image capture apparatus comprises an image sensor, from which a first viewpoint image and a second viewpoint image that share the same charge accumulation period can be read out. The apparatus further comprises a correction circuit that applies correction processing to the images read out from the image sensor. The apparatus controls the image sensor and the correction circuit so that correction processing performed on the first viewpoint image by the correction circuit during continuous shooting is performed in parallel with the readout of the first viewpoint image and the second viewpoint image from the image sensor.
