Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a first signal processing circuit that receives image signals from an image sensor and a second signal processing circuit that performs image processing on image signals output from the first signal processing circuit. The first signal processing circuit includes an evaluation circuit that determines evaluation values for image signals, a control circuit that controls an order according to which the image signals are output to the second signal processing circuit, based on the evaluation values, and a selection circuit that selects an image signal for a single frame from among the image signals for a predetermined plural number of frames, based on the evaluation values.
