Abstract
[Object] Observation is made possible by switching between a stereoscopic vision image and a depth-of-field extended image correspondingly to a situation.[Solution] An image processing device according to the present disclosure, includes a photographing situation acquiring section that acquires information with regard to a photographing situation of an image for a left eye or an image for a right eye, and a determining section that determines correspondingly to the information with regard to the photographing situation whether to perform stereoscopic vision image processing for the image for a left eye or the image for a right eye, or whether to perform two-dimensional depth-of-field extension processing with at least one of the image for a left eye or the image for a right eye. With this, it becomes possible to observe by switching between a stereoscopic vision image and a depth-of-field extended image correspondingly to a situation.
