PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To shorten a photographing time lag and obtain a focused image in a wide distance range in a multi-viewpoint imaging apparatus. SOLUTION: Respective focus positions of focus lenses in a plurality of imaging optical systems to which two or more pieces of identification information n (n=1, 2, 3...) that do not overlap each other are given are set to lens positions corresponding to a subject distance L of H/(2n-1) or more (H is hyperfocal distance). By performing simultaneous imaging in which subject images with received light of respective imaging optical systems are simultaneously converted into image data by corresponding imaging devices according to imaging instructions, the focused image is obtained in the wider distance range in proportion to the number of the imaging optical systems.
