Abstract:
An image capture apparatus uses an image sensor that includes pixels for focus-detection that double as pixels for image-capturing. After signals of pixels used as the pixels for focus-detection are read out, signals of pixels used as the pixels for image-capturing are read out. Furthermore, signals for a captured image that have been generated from the signals of the pixels used as the pixels for focus-detection, as well as signals that have been read out from the pixels used as the pixels for image-capturing, are rearranged into the order that is the same as the arrangement of pixels in the image sensor. Both the acceleration in focus detection processing and the generation of a captured image with high image quality can be achieved.

Claim (Index 8):
The image capture apparatus according to  claim 1 , wherein\n the pixels include a plurality of photoelectric conversion unit, with respect to the pixels used as the pixels for focus-detection, the readout unit reads out signals obtained by summing signals of the plurality of photoelectric conversion unit and signals of a part of the plurality of photoelectric conversion unit, and the signals for the captured image that have been generated from the signals of the pixels used as the pixels for focus-detection are the signals obtained by summing.
