Abstract: An electronic endoscope system includes: an imaging element for imaging a subject illuminated alternately with narrow-band light and broadband light; generating, as a first image signal, an image signal of the subject imaged during an illumination period of the narrow-band light; and generating, as a second image signal, an image signal of the subject imaged during an illumination period of the broadband light. The system also includes a signal processing circuit for generating a high-intensity image signal by adding the first and second image signals together; for generating a low-intensity image signal by adding the first and second image signals together after a signal level of the second image signal is reduced and for generating an HDR image signal using the high-intensity and low-intensity image signals.
