Image pickup apparatus provided with a solid-state image pickup device

摘要

An image pickup apparatus includes a solid-state image pickup device sharing a circuit necessary for a pixel structure between multiple pixels composing each set including a certain number of pixels having the same arrangement pattern; a pixel mixture correcting unit correcting leakage of light that should be incident on each pixel of the solid-state image pickup device from the pixel into adjacent pixels and/or leakage of light that should be incident on the adjacent pixels into the pixel in accordance with a correction parameter; a correction parameter generating unit generating multiple correction parameters corresponding to the multiple pixels composing the set; and a correction parameter selecting unit selecting the correction parameter from the multiple correction parameters in accordance with which pixel in the multiple pixels composing the set a pixel to be corrected corresponds to and supplying the selected correction parameter to the pixel mixture correcting unit.
