ABSTRACT:
An imaging device able to simplify an optical system, able to reduce costs, and in addition capable of giving a restored image having a suitable quality in accordance with stop control and having a small influence of noise, and an image processing method of same, including an optical system110and an imaging element120forming a first order image and an image processing device150forming the first order image to a high definition last image, wherein a control device200detects stop information and controls a switching unit140so as to input a dispersed image signal of an object captured by the imaging element120via an AFE130to the image processing device150and input a dispersion-free restored image signal to a camera signal processing unit160when not closing the stop down to a predetermined value, while directly input the dispersed image signal of the object captured by the imaging element120via the AFE130to the camera signal processing unit160without passing through the image processing device150when closing the stop down to the predetermined value or more.
