ABSTRACT:
In an imaging apparatus for detecting a dark output level superposed on an imaging signal which is an output signal of an imaging device and correcting the imaging signal based on the detected dark output level, occurrence of a false signal caused by the dark output correction process is prevented and a substantial lowering in the effective imaging range is prevented by eliminating a dark output component from the imaging signal and setting a clip level and gain for a subject signal component according to the detected dark output level.
