Abstract
A driving circuit drives an image sensing device by a plurality of driving schemes. A memory stores pixel defect information as information about a pixel defect in the image sensing device in correspondence with each driving scheme. A signal processing circuit corrects the pixel defect by referring to the pixel defect information in the memory in accordance with the driving scheme with which the driving circuit drives the image sensing device.
