Abstract: A restoration processing unit performs a restoration process based on an optical transfer function of an optical system for a target image. The entire angle of view of the optical system is greater than 90 degrees. A light amount evaluation region of the optical system is a region in which a distance from the center of an image formation plane is not less than 80% of half of the length of a diagonal line of an imaging surface of an imaging element. When a first evaluation wavelength is used, the ratio of the amount of light in the light amount evaluation region to the amount of light in a region of the optical system corresponding to the center of the image formation plane is not less than 25%. When a second evaluation wavelength is used, the value of the MTF of the optical system acquired at half of the Nyquist frequency of the imaging element is not less than 15%.
