A favorable noise reduction process that is optimized for capturing conditions and that prevents the occurrence of residual image components is enabled. Provided is an imaging system including: a first extraction section that extracts a local region that includes a pixel of interest from an image signal; a second extraction section that extracts, from another image signal captured at a different time, a local region located at almost the same position as said local region; a first noise reduction section that performs a noise reduction process by using the local regions; a noise estimation section that estimates an amount of noise included in the pixel of interest; a residual image detection section that detects a residual image component included in the local region based on the estimated amount of noise; and a second noise reduction section that performs a noise reduction process based on the detected residual image component. |
