Claim One:
1. A 3D imaging device for three-dimensionally imaging a subject and capturing a 3D image formed by a left eye image and a right eye image, the 3D imaging device comprising: an imaging unit configured to capture the 3D image; a distance information obtaining unit configured to obtain distance information indicating a distance from the 3D imaging device to the subject; a condition obtaining unit configured to obtain an imaging condition under which the 3D image has been captured and a display condition under which the 3D image will be displayed; an ideal disparity setting unit configured to set a disparity of the subject that will occur under the display condition as an ideal disparity, based on the obtained imaging condition and the obtained display condition; an actual disparity obtaining unit configured to detect a disparity of the subject occurring in the captured 3D image as an actual disparity; and a disparity correction unit configured to perform disparity correction of the 3D image in a manner that the detected actual disparity is adjusted toward the set ideal disparity.
