Claims (6)

A first correction process for correcting a subject image obtained by capturing a subject image using a first dark image captured by blocking incident light, and a subject obtained by capturing the subject image Second correction is performed using a second dark image that is captured for a time shorter than the imaging time of the first dark image and shorter than the imaging time of the first dark image by blocking incident light. Correction means for performing correction processing;
Selection means for selecting whether to perform the first correction process or the second correction process according to an imaging condition;
An imaging device comprising: The imaging apparatus according to claim 1,
In addition to whether the selection unit performs the first correction process or the second correction process according to an imaging condition, the selection unit selects one of the first correction process and the second correction process. An imaging device characterized by selecting whether or not to perform. The imaging device according to claim 1 or 2,
The imaging apparatus is at least one of a temperature condition, a sensitivity setting condition, and an exposure time setting condition of an imaging element having a plurality of pixels. The imaging apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 3,
A first defective pixel correction process that corrects a predetermined number of defective pixels; a second defective pixel correction process that corrects fewer defective pixels than the predetermined number;
The imaging apparatus according to claim 1, wherein the selection unit selects whether to perform the first defective pixel correction process or the second defective pixel correction process according to the imaging condition. The imaging apparatus according to any one of claims 1 to 4, wherein:
A lens that forms an image on the image sensor;
An A / D converter for A / D converting a signal from the image sensor;
An image pickup apparatus comprising: a storage control unit that controls to record a signal output from the A / D converter in a storage unit. An imaging method of an imaging apparatus having an imaging element for imaging a subject image,
A first correction process for correcting a subject image obtained by capturing a subject image using a first dark image captured by blocking incident light, and a subject obtained by capturing the subject image Second correction is performed using a second dark image that is captured for a time shorter than the imaging time of the first dark image and shorter than the imaging time of the first dark image by blocking incident light. An imaging process comprising: a correction process for performing a correction process; and a selection process for selecting whether to perform the first correction process or the second correction process according to an imaging condition. Device imaging method.
