The infrared imaging apparatus comprises a CCD sensor 13 having sensitivities in the infrared region and visible region; three color filters FR, FG, FB each transmitting visible light in a specific wavelength region and infrared light in a specific wavelength region; and an infrared transmission filter 12 for allowing infrared light to pass through while removing visible light, wherein the CCD sensor 13 is configured to generate an imaging signal based on the infrared light passing through each of the color filters, the infrared imaging apparatus enabling the provision of the infrared imaging apparatus picking up the infrared light as the imaging light using the CCD sensor and the color filters as they are in the general imaging apparatus. As a result, a color imaging signal depending on the spectral distribution in the infrared region can be obtained without an expensive infrared CCD.
