Abstract:
A digital camera includes an imaging element (5) having an imaging surface (50) where pixels (51) are arranged in two dimensions in a row direction X and in a column direction Y, an AF processing unit (19) that determines whether a focus lens is in a focused state using detection signals obtained from respective pixels (51) of a first pixel group including plural pixels (51) arranged in the row direction X and a second pixel group including pixels (51) arranged at the same distance in one direction that crosses the row direction X with respect to each of the plural pixels (51) of the first pixel group, in a state where the focus lens is at an arbitrary position, and a system control unit (11) that moves the focus lens until the AF processing unit (19) determines that the focus lens is in the focused state.
