    Abstract: The pixel region includes a first phase difference pixel group including a plurality of the phase difference pixels of which the first side of the photoelectric conversion element is blocked by the light blocking layer in a first side region of the first side, and a second phase difference pixel group including a plurality of the phase difference pixels of which the second side of the photoelectric conversion element is blocked by the light blocking layer. The first phase difference pixel group includes a first A pixel and a first B pixel in which a light blocking area of the photoelectric conversion element using the light blocking layer is smaller than that of the first A pixel. The controller performs addition readout processing in which at least one of a pixel signal of the first A pixel or a pixel signal of the first B pixel is weighted in accordance with optical characteristics of the imaging lens.

    Abstract: A non-emission image is obtained by a non-emission image obtaining unit in a state in which a plurality of flash devices do not emit light. Pre-emission images are obtained by an emission image obtaining unit in a state in which the plurality of flash devices individually emits light. Flash light irradiation areas are specified by a flash light irradiation area specifying unit based on a signal value difference of a plurality of division areas of the non-emission image and each of the emission images. A priority area selecting unit selects a priority area to be used in white balance (WB) adjustment. A WB adjusting unit performs WB adjustment based on a signal value of the selected priority area.

    Abstract: The imaging element has a first and a second phase difference pixel region each including the plurality of phase difference pixels, and an imaging pixel region between the first and the second phase difference pixel region in the first direction. The processor is configured to cause the imaging element to perform imaging at a frame cycle, execute first readout processing of reading out a signal from the first phase difference pixel region during a first frame period, and execute second readout processing of reading out a signal from the second phase difference pixel region during a second frame period subsequent to the first frame period. A first exposure time, during which the first phase difference pixel region is exposed, and a second exposure time, during which the second phase difference pixel region is exposed, are different from an exposure time of the imaging pixel region.

The processor is configured to execute: imaging processing of acquiring a plurality of first frames, which are imaged at a first frame rate in a first exposure mode, through the imaging sensor; correction processing of performing electronic shake correction on the plurality of first frames on the basis of an amount of shake delivered to the imaging apparatus; and generation processing of generating motion picture data, which has a second frame having a second frame rate lower than the first frame rate, by synthesizing the plurality of first frames. In the first exposure mode, the processor sets m as a positive integer, and makes an exposure time for an mth first frame constituting the second frame shorter than an exposure time for an (m+1)th first frame.
