<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an observation apparatus for acquiring information about the whole object to be observed (phase object) such as a cell. Ž<P>SOLUTION: This observation apparatus 1 comprises a stage 10 for supporting the object 5 to be observed; a lighting unit 20 for radiating illumination light where bright parts and dark parts are mutually and repeatedly arranged to the object 5 to be observed supported by the stage 10; an image-forming optical system 31 for guiding scattered light from the object 5 to be observed to which the illumination light is radiated to an imaging surface 33 and forming an image of the object 5 to be observed; an imaging element 32 for imaging the image of the object 5 to be observed which is image-formed on the imaging surface 33 by the image-forming optical system 31. The observation apparatus further comprises a stage driving section 11 for relatively moving the stage 10 in the repeating direction of the bright parts and dark parts of the illumination light. The imaging element 32 images the image of the object 5 to be observed a plurality of times while relative movement is performed by the stage driving section 11. Ž<P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT Ž
