Abstract: An imaging apparatus is capable of performing a normal imaging operation of capturing a subject image to generate image data and a dark subtraction operation of performing a dark subtraction on the image data to generate repaired image data. The imaging apparatus includes: an image sensor configured to generate image data during the normal imaging operation when a shutter is opened under a predetermined photographing condition; a recorder configured to record the image data and photographing condition data indicating the photographing condition in a recording medium; and a controller configured to control the image sensor. The controller performs the normal imaging operation a plurality of times, and then performs the dark subtraction operation on each piece of image data using a dark image corresponding to each photographing condition.
