Abstract

An imaging device includes an optical information acquiring section that acquires optical information of a photographing optical system to form an image in the imaging element, an optical function calculating section that calculates an optical function to determine the correction function based on the optical information, a pixel function calculating section that calculates a pixel function to determine the correction function based on the pixel outputs of pixels positioned around focus detecting pixels, and a correction function selecting section () that selects the correction function to correct the pixel output to be output from the focus detecting pixels corresponding to current frame, based on the optical function, the pixel function and the optical information.
