Abstract

An imaging apparatus includes an imager, and a processor configured to perform a dynamic range expansion process by generating one composite image from a plurality of captured images, perform the dynamic range expansion process by correcting an output value of a signal of one captured image, and execute the process by the dynamic range expansion process by generating one composite image from the plurality of captured images or the dynamic range expansion process by correcting the output value of the signal of the one captured image based on a time of one frame period and a total exposure time in a case of capturing the plurality of captured images.
