Imaging apparatus and method for generating an aberration free image

Abstract

An imaging apparatus able to design lenses without regard as to a zoom position or zoom amount and able to restore an image by high precision operation and a method of same, including an optical unit 110 including a plurality of optical systems 110-1 and 110-2 forming a first order image and having different magnifications, an imaging element 120, and an image processing device 150 forming the first order image to a high definition final image, wherein, in the image processing device 150, a kernel size used at the time of the convolution operation and the coefficients used in the operation of numerical values thereof are made variable in accordance with the magnification of the optical system, this is determined by input of an operation unit 190 etc., and the kernel size having suitability in accordance with the magnification of the optical system or the above coefficients are linked.
