Patent ID: 7777792

Claim:
An image-capturing apparatus comprising: an image-capturing element that includes: a specific pixel column, a first electrical charge transfer portion corresponding to the specific pixel column, which transfers an electrical charge indicating a first color component, the first electrical charge transfer portion being disposed at one side of the specific pixel column, and a second electrical charge transfer portion corresponding to the specific pixel column, which transfers an electrical charge indicating a second color component, the second electrical charge transfer portion being disposed at the other side of the specific pixel column, wherein the image-capturing element outputs charge signals each corresponding to a light-receiving pixel by executing photoelectric conversion of subject light input via a condenser lens formed in conjunction with each light-receiving pixel; and a correction device that corrects a first charge signal output from the first electrical charge transfer portion with a first correction quantity calculated by using a second charge signal output from the second electrical charge transfer portion in units of individual pixels, and corrects the second charge signal output from the second electrical charge transfer portion with a second correction quantity calculated by using the first charge signal output from the first electrical charge transfer portion in units of individual pixels, wherein the correction device calculates the first correction quantity to become larger as a position of a target light-receiving pixel is located closer to an end of the image-capturing element in a direction of the one side of the specific pixel column, and calculates the second correction quantity to become larger as a position of a target light-receiving pixel is located closer to an end of the image-capturing element in a direction of the other side of the specific pixel column.
