An image processing apparatus includes at least one processor operatively coupled to at least one memory that function as an input unit configured to receive an image signal of a visible light pixel and an image signal of a near-infrared pixel, output from a sensor that includes a visible light pixel component and a near-infrared pixel component, a determination unit configured to determine whether or not an output signal of the near-infrared pixel is higher than a threshold and to produce a determination result, a detector configured to detect a saturated visible light pixel, and a switching unit configured to switch over saturation processing to be applied to the saturated visible light pixel on the basis of the determination result of the determination unit.
