The invention provides an image capturing apparatus and a control method thereof. The image capturing apparatus comprises an image sensor in which pixels including a correction pixel region and an effective pixel region are arrayed two-dimensionally; and a creating unit configured to create uncompressed or losslessly-compressed image data from signals acquired from the effective pixel region and the correction pixel region, wherein in the case where a resizing process is to be carried out on the effective pixel region included in the image data, the creating unit does not carry out the resizing process on the correction pixel region.
