PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an endoscope apparatus in which the color tone of an observation image does not change even in the case that observation is performed with automatic dimming in the endoscope apparatus which uses an LED as a light source of an endoscope. ! SOLUTION: The endoscope apparatus includes a dimming control circuit 35 for varying a drive current to be fed to an LED in a white balance adjustment mode, a white balance correction coefficient operation part 52 for operating a white balance correction coefficient that displaces according to the drive current to be varied, a memory 34 for associating an acquired white balance correction coefficient with a drive current value to temporarily store the white balance correction coefficient, a white balance correction coefficient reading part 55 for reading the white balance correction coefficient corresponding to the drive current detected by a drive current value detection part 54 in a normal photographing mode from the memory 34, and a colo |
