An imaging apparatus for generating a combined output image includes an image generating unit, and an image processing unit connected to the image generating unit. The image generating unit generates a plurality of input optical image data, each of which consists of an array of input image components and corresponds to an optical image of a scene taken at a respective focusing distance. The image processing unit processes the plurality of input optical image data to produce an output optical image data that consists of an array of output image components. The image processing unit calculates a neighborhood contrast value for each of the input image components of the plurality of input optical image data, compares the neighborhood contrast values of the input image components of the plurality of input optical image data that are located at a same position on the respective array, and selects the input image components that have optimal neighborhood contrast values in relation to the other ones of the input image components located at the same position on the respective array as the output image components of the output optical image data. An imaging method for generating the combined output image is also disclosed.
