Abstract
An imaging device includes a first detection unit, a vector correction unit, and a second detection unit. The first detection unit is configured to detect a motion vector based on reference image data and input image data after aberration of a lens is corrected. The vector correction unit is configured to correct an error component included in the motion vector detected by the first detection unit according to an aberration characteristic of the lens. The error component is produced by aberration correction. The second detection unit is configured to set a search area of the motion vector based on the motion vector corrected by the vector correction unit and detect the motion vector in the search area.
