Abstract:
An imaging device includes: an imaging unit that images a subject with three or more kinds of exposures, ratios of respective pairs of exposures of which adjacent to each other in an ascending order or a descending order are equal; and a combining unit that combines, on the basis of the ratios, pixel signals corresponding to the respective three or more kinds of exposures obtained by imaging the subject with the imaging unit.
