A low-priced image pickup apparatus that does not require a memory dedicated to store light-shielded image data for detection of defective pixels of an image pickup device. A system controller of the image pickup apparatus performs control such that two storage areas of a memory are used to store normal image data at the time of continuous shooting. At the time of shooting that requires noise reduction processing to subtract light-shielded image data from normal image data, the system controller performs control such that one of the storage areas is used to store the normal image data and the other storage area is used to store the light-shielded image data.
