Abstract:
An image sensor captures a subject image of a partial luminous flux passed through different regions from among a total luminous flux through one optical system. The image sensor is configured from a pixel arrangement in which a plurality of each of at least three types of pixels are arranged, including non-parallax pixels which comprise an aperture mask that produces a viewpoint in a reference direction, first parallax pixels which comprise an aperture mask that produces a viewpoint in a first direction different from the reference direction and second parallax pixels which comprise an aperture mask that produces a viewpoint in a second direction different from the reference direction, wherein each of the aperture mask of the first parallax pixels and the aperture mask of the second parallax pixels has a width of a greater-than-half-aperture aperture area in the direction of change of the viewpoint.
