<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging apparatus capable of reducing color noise. Ž<P>SOLUTION: A digital camera provided with a solid state imaging element 5 including a photoelectric conversion element 51R for detecting R light, a photoelectric conversion element 51G for detecting G light, a photoelectric conversion element 51B for detecting B light and a photoelectric conversion element 51W for detecting the luminance components of light includes: an RGBW interpolation part 17a for interpolating signals of a kind which can not be obtained from the photoelectric conversion elements corresponding to pixel positions from the periphery at the pixel positions corresponding to the respective photoelectric conversion elements included in the solid state imaging element 5 and generating R signals, G signals, B signals and signals of the luminance components at the pixel positions; a luminance/color difference signal generation part 17b for generating color difference signals C from the R signals, the G signals and the B signals; and a color difference signal correction means (a correction coefficient computing part 17c and a multiplier 17d) for correcting the color difference signals C on the basis of the R signals, the G signals, the B signals and the signals of the luminance components.
