    Abstract: An imaging apparatus according to an aspect of the present disclosure includes a light source that, in operation, emits first pulsed light and second pulsed light, an image sensor that includes at least one pixel including a photodiode, a first charge accumulator and a second charge accumulator, the first charge accumulator and the second charge accumulator, in operation, accumulating signal charge from the photodiode, and a control circuit that, in operation, controls the image sensor. The control circuit, in operation, causes the first charge accumulator to begin to accumulate the signal charge a period of time after the light source begins to emit the first pulsed light. The control circuit, in operation, causes the second charge accumulator to begin to accumulate the signal charge the period of time after the light source begins to emit the second pulsed light.
