Provided is a single-plate color imaging element including color filters in a predetermined color filter array arranged on a plurality of pixels formed by photoelectric conversion elements arranged in horizontal and vertical directions. The color filter array of the color imaging element includes a predetermined basic array pattern P including filters of all R, G, and B colors arranged in all lines in the horizontal and vertical directions, and the basic array pattern P is repeatedly arranged in the horizontal and vertical directions. Particularly, the G filters are arranged to include sections where two or more G filters are adjacent to each other in each direction (four directions) of horizontal, vertical, and oblique (NE, NW) directions in the basic array pattern, and pixel values of G pixels corresponding to the adjacent G filters allow determining a correlation of luminance in the four directions at minimum pixel intervals. |
