An image forming apparatus including an adaptive optics realizing a reduction in image acquisition time and high definition without significantly increasing a light amount of a beam for scanning is provided, the apparatus including an adaptive optics scanning a plurality of areas in an object with a deflector using a measuring beam including a plurality of beams and corrects reflected and/or scattered beam from the object to acquire an image of the object, including: one or more wavefront aberration detecting device detecting wavefront aberration in each of the plurality of beams caused by the object when scanned by the measuring beam including the plurality of beams; and a single wavefront aberration correcting device correcting the wavefront aberration of each of the plurality of beams according to the detected wavefront aberration, the single wavefront aberration correcting device arranged in a position optically conjugate with the deflector. |
