Abstract
A reading apparatus includes an light emitter that performs irradiation with light, a light receiver that receives light reflected from an object to be imaged, a first optical path in which specularly reflected light is guided to the light receiver as a read image, a second optical path in which diffusely reflected light is guided to the light receiver as a read image, and a switching section that switches between the first optical path and the second optical path by rotating the light emitter.
