Abstract:
1. A stereoscopic imaging device, comprising: an imaging unit capable of outputting a pair of images having a parallax, by pupil-dividing a light flux from an object into two light fluxes and imaging the two light fluxes onto two photoelectric conversion element groups corresponding to each flux to photoelectrically convert the two light fluxes; an aperture unit capable of adjusting an amount of light flux imaged onto the photoelectric conversion element groups of the imaging unit; a light-quantity detector detecting the amount of light flux; an aperture controller capable of performing a first aperture control controlling an amount of opening of the aperture unit so that a desired parallax is obtained according to the amount of light detected by the light-quantity detector; and a shake detector detecting an amount of shake of an object image at a time of photographing an image by the imaging unit, wherein the aperture controller performs a second aperture control in which the larger the amount of shake detected by the shake detector becomes, the further the amount of opening of the aperture unit increases than the amount of opening required for the first aperture control.
