Document read apparatus and image forming apparatus

A document read apparatus for reading an image recorded on a document, comprising:

• a light emitting unit having a first light source and a second light source that emit light to a document;
• a light reception unit that receives the light reflected by the document;
• an optical system that conducts the light reflected by the document to the light reception unit;
• a light quantity control unit that separately controls a light quantity of the light emitted by the first light source and a light quantity of the light emitted by the second light source;
• and
• a movement control unit that moves the light emitting unit held to face the document;
• wherein
• the first light source and the second light source are linear light sources whose longitudinal directions are across a moving direction of the light emitting unit moved by the movement control unit, and are arranged in parallel to the moving direction;
• the light conducted by the optical system has passed between the first light source and the second light source;
• and
• the light quantity control unit separately controls, in accordance with a position of the light emitting unit moved by the movement control unit, the light quantity of the light emitted by the first light source and the light quantity of the light emitted by the second light source.
