Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes the following elements: a display unit configured to be openable and closable; a primary imaging unit; a secondary imaging unit for outputting a secondary image signal that has an angle of view equal to or wider than that of a primary image and a resolution higher than that of the primary image; an angle-of-view matching unit for generating a cutout image signal from the secondary image signal, based on the primary image signal; a parallax information generator for generating parallax information, based on the primary image signal and the cutout image signal; and a distance measuring unit for calculating a distance to a predetermined object included in the primary image signal, based on the parallax information and the primary image signal. In this imaging apparatus, the secondary imaging unit is disposed on the backside of the image display surface of the display unit.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes primary imaging section, secondary imaging section, and image signal processor. The image signal processor is configured to, based on the primary image signal, cut out at least a part from the secondary image signal and generate a cutout image signal; determine whether or not either one of the primary image signal and the secondary image signal has a specific pattern; calculate parallax information based on the primary image signal and the cutout image signal, and correct the parallax information when the either one image signal is determined to have the specific pattern; and generate a new secondary image signal based on the primary image signal and one of the parallax information and the corrected parallax information.
