<p>By executing a prescribed feature conversion process on pixel values (d) of pixels which are read with a plurality of pixels, an inflection point scattering correction unit (621) unifies photoelectric conversion features of each pixel with linear features common to all pixels. An interpolation assessment unit (622) receives sequential input of the pixel values (d) of the pixels from a black scattering correction unit (61), assesses whether each pixel is an inflection point defective pixel, and notifies a pixel interpolation unit (63) of the result of the assessment. The pixel interpolation unit (63) treats the inflection point defective pixels and the defective pixels as pixels to be interpolated, and interpolates the pixels to be interpolated, employing, in the interpolation, peripheral pixels of the pixels to be interpolated which are regular pixels other than the inflection point defective pixels and the defective pixels.</p> |
