Abstract
Provided is an imaging apparatus that captures a multispectral image having a good image quality. An imaging apparatus () includes an imaging optical system () that includes a pupil region which is split into a plurality of regions including a first pupil region and a second pupil region different from the first pupil region, and a polarization filter which polarizes light beams passing through the first pupil region and the second pupil region in directions different from each other, an imaging element () that includes a first pixel which receives the light beam passing through the first pupil region and a second pixel which receives the light beam passing through the second pupil region, and a signal processing unit () that processes signals output from the imaging element (), and outputs at least first image data consisting of an output signal of the first pixel and second image data consisting of an output signal of the second pixel. In the imaging optical system (), wavelengths of the light beams passing through the first pupil region and the second pupil region are different from each other, and aberration characteristics of regions corresponding to the first pupil region and the second pupil region are different from each other.
