Abstract:
In an image capturing apparatus, an image sensing device includes a plurality of groups of pixels each including a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements, signals from the plurality of photoelectric conversion elements being readable separately for each photoelectric conversion element via a signal line used in common by each group of pixels. A reading unit performs, on a plurality of groups of pixels, a reading-out operation to reading out a signal as a first signal from part of the plurality of photoelectric conversion elements and a second reading-out operation to mix signals from the plurality of photoelectric conversion elements and read out a resultant mixed signal as an image signal. A generation unit generates one image file including the first signal, the image signal, and defect data indicating a group of pixels for which the first signal is defective while the image signal is not defective.

Claim (Index 17):
The image capturing apparatus according to  claim 1 , further comprising\n a decoding unit configured to decode the image signal and the first signal from the image file recorded in the recording medium, and an image processing unit configured to perform image processing on the first signal and the image signal decoded by the decoding unit, wherein the image processing performed by the image processing unit is image processing to generate a virtual viewpoint image as seen from a virtual viewpoint.
