Abstract

There is provided an imaging apparatus capable of reducing a margin region required for rolling shutter distortion correction processing. The imaging apparatus includes an imaging unit employing a rolling shutter method, and a correction unit configured to perform correction processing for reducing a rolling shutter distortion on image data captured by the imaging unit. The correction unit adjusts readout positions of other lines relative to a readout position of a reference line in the image data, and sets the reference line so as to reduce a deviation amount between the readout position of the reference line and the readout positions of the other lines.
