    Abstract: There are provided an imaging device, an information acquisition method, and an information acquisition program that can simply and accurately acquire information related to a ray angle with respect to an image sensor in a case where subject light is incident on the image sensor through an interchangeable lens even though the interchangeable lens having no compatibility is mounted on the imaging device. An image sensor (201) including first phase difference pixels and second phase difference pixels is moved between a first position (P1) and a second position (P2) in the direction of an optical axis of an interchangeable lens. Information related to a ray angle with respect to the image sensor (201) in a case where subject light is incident on the image sensor (201) through the interchangeable lens is acquired on the basis of the outputs of the first and second phase difference pixels in a case where the image sensor (201) is moved to the first position (P1) and the outputs of the first and second phase difference pixels in a case where the image sensor (201) is moved to the second position (P2).

    Abstract: It is intended to provide an imaging apparatus that enables proper exposure of phase difference detection pixels and thereby makes it possible to perform phase difference autofocusing with high accuracy. A system control unit 11 selects phase difference detection pixels from phase difference detection pixels 51R and 51L existing in a selected phase difference detection area 52 according to a position of the selected phase difference detection area 52 in a row direction X, and determines exposure conditions based on output signals of the selected phase difference detection pixels. A defocus amount calculation unit 19 calculates a defocus amount using output signals of the phase difference detection pixels 51R and 51L existing in the selected phase difference detection area 52 that are part of a shot image signal produced by shooting that is performed by an imaging device 5 under the exposure conditions determined by the exposure determining unit 11.
