Abstract
An imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit configured to capture an image by using a rolling shutter method, a movement detection unit configured to detect a movement amount of the imaging apparatus relative to an object, an in-focus detection unit configured to detect an in-focus degree to the object, a distortion correction unit configured to correct a distortion in the image generated due to the rolling shutter method by changing a reading position of each line in the image, and a control unit configured to determine a correction amount of the distortion generated due to the rolling shutter method from the movement amount detected by the movement detection unit and the in-focus degree detected by the in-focus detection unit.
