Image capturing apparatus

摘要

An image capturing apparatus comprises an image sensor constructed by replacing some of a plurality of image forming pixels of the image sensor with focus detecting pixels, a comparison unit configured to compare outputs of the image forming pixels as a plurality of correction targets adjacent to the focus detecting pixel with outputs of a plurality of reference image forming pixels of the same color as the plurality of image forming pixels arranged in the vicinity of the plurality of image forming pixels adjacent to the focus detecting pixel, and a correction unit configured to execute correction processing of the outputs of the image forming pixels as the plurality of correction targets in accordance with a comparison result of the comparison unit.

1. An image capturing apparatus comprising:
an image sensor configured to include a plurality of first pixels and a second pixel having a photoelectric conversion area which is more greatly shielded from light than a photoelectric conversion area of the first pixel; a comparison unit configured to compare outputs of the first pixels as a plurality of correction target pixels with outputs of the first pixels as a plurality of reference pixels which are arranged at a position more distant from the second pixel than the correction target pixels; and a correction unit configured to execute correction processing of the correction target pixels in accordance with a comparison result of the comparison unit, wherein the correction unit executes the correction processing when the outputs of the plurality of reference pixels are within a predetermined range, and does not execute the correction processing when the outputs of the plurality of reference pixel is beyond the predetermined range.
