Abstract
An image processing apparatus includes a color image data generation sectionthat generates color image data from an image pickup signal of a red component, an image pickup signal of a green component, and an image pickup signal of a blue component which are output from an image pickup device; an infrared image data generation sectionthat generates infrared image data from an image pickup signal of an infrared component output from the image pickup device; and a high-contrast infrared image data generation sectionthat generates high-contrast infrared image data using the color image data and the infrared image data. Contrast of the high-contrast infrared image data is more enhanced than that of the infrared image data.
