IMAGING DEVICE, IMAGING METHOD, PROGRAM FOR IMAGING DEVICE, AND LIGHT-SHIELDING MEMBER

To provide an imaging device for reducing flare, an imaging method, a program for the imaging device, and a light-shielding member.SOLUTION: An imaging device having an imaging unit having a light receiving region that receives light from an imaging target via an optical element that collects light acquires image data corresponding to an image to be captured formed in the light receiving region by the optical element (S2), and performs correction to reduce a flare component contained in the image data acquired by an image data acquisition unit on the basis of the amount of light received in a first region where the image to be captured is not formed by being shielded by a light-shielding member that blocks a part of light incident on the optical element in the light-receiving region (S5).SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8 【課題】フレアを軽減するための撮像装置、撮像方法、撮像装置用のプログラム及び遮光部材を提供する。【解決手段】光を集光する光学素子を介して、撮像対象からの光を受光する受光領域を有する撮像部を有する撮像装置において、光学素子により受光領域に結像された撮像対象の像に対応する画像データを取得し（Ｓ２）、受光領域のうち光学素子へ入射する光の一部を遮断する遮光部材により遮光されることで撮像対象の像が結像しない第１領域で受光された光の光量に基づいて、画像データ取得部により取得された画像データに含まれるフレア成分を低減するための補正を行う（Ｓ５）。【選択図】図８
