Abstract
An imaging apparatus that can output images with a plurality of resolutions is provided. The imaging apparatus comprises an imaging section () for imaging a subject using an imaging device () to generate an image signal and a resolution conversion section () for converting a resolution of the image signal captured by the imaging section () and outputting it. The resolution conversion section () reduces the image inputted from the imaging section () to a plurality of images of different sizes and outputs an embedded image in which the size-reduced images of different sizes are embedded in the input image size from the imaging section (). Thereby, images of a plurality of image sizes can be outputted at the same time.
