An image processing apparatus includes: an acquisition unit configured to obtain image data generated by an image sensor forming an array pattern using color filters having mutually different spectral transmittances and to obtain a correction coefficient for correcting a difference between pixel values corresponding to a difference between a spectral sensitivity and a preset reference spectral sensitivity in a wavelength range in a pixel-of-interest; a correction amount calculation unit configured to calculate an estimation value of a color component in the pixel-of-interest using a pixel value of each of pixels in surrounding pixels of a same color and the correction coefficient and configured to calculate a correction amount of the pixel value of the pixel-of-interest based on the estimation value and the correction coefficient of the pixel-of-interest; and a pixel value correction unit configured to correct the pixel value of the pixel-of-interest based on the calculated correction amount.
