A signal processor corrects image data based on signals from a plurality of light receiving pixels by using light shielded data based on signals from a plurality of light shielded pixels. The signal processor comprises a line memory, a detection unit, a correction value generation unit, and a data correction unit. The line memory holds image data on a selected row, the detection unit generates a selection signal that selects a correction factor based on the image data on at least the selected row, the correction value generation unit generates and holds a correction value based on the correction factor selected by the selection signal and light shielded data on the selected row, and the data correction unit corrects image data on the selected row held in the line memory based on the correction value.
