Capturing units acquire, from an object, image data having characteristics different from each other. An image generator calculates a deviation amount indicating the position deviation between images represented by the image data acquired by the capturing units, and generates image data of a multi-channel image in which the position deviation between the images represented by the image data acquired by the capturing units has been corrected using the deviation amount. Each of the capturing units comprises capturing elements having capturing characteristics specific to the capturing unit, and capturing elements having capturing characteristics common to a plurality of capturing units. The image generator calculates the deviation amount from image data acquired by the capturing elements having the common capturing characteristics. |
