There is provided an image pickup apparatus that, even if image data has insufficient depth difference between an object and a background, accurately discriminates a region including an object and a region including a background. The image pickup apparatus includes generation means configured to generate first image data when an in-focus position is a first focal position at which the object is an in-focus state or a second focal position on a near distance side of the first focal position, and second image data when an in-focus position is a third focal position on a far distance side of a focal position at which the background is an in-focus state and discrimination means (112) configured to discriminate, to discriminate between the first region including the object and the second region including the background using the first and second image data. |
