An imaging apparatus includes a first light-shielding member formed in a predetermined optical member included in a photographing optical system, the first light-shielding member dividing a pupil region of the photographing optical system into a first region and a second region and a second light-shielding member letting only a light beam passing through the first region enter a first light-receiving element and letting only a light beam passing through the second region enter a second light-receiving element other than the first light-receiving element.
