Abstract
Light transmitted through the imaging lens 100 is divided into two light fluxes by the half mirror 202 fixed in the camera body 200, and two light fluxes are guided to the imaging element 201 and optical viewfinder, respectively. An image processing unit corrects aberration, which occurs due to the transmittance of light through the half mirror 202, of the image data generated after receiving light at the imaging element 201, by conversion processing based on a transfer function representing its optical transfer characteristics and restores the image data prior to the occurrence of aberration.
