Abstract: In an image acquisition device, an optical path difference generating member can form an optical path length difference of a second optical image without splitting light in a second optical path. This can suppress the quantity of light required for the second optical path to obtain information of the focal position, whereby a quantity of light can be secured for a first imaging device to capture an image. The image acquisition device synchronizes the movement of a predetermined part of a sample within a field of an objective lens with rolling readout such that each pixel column of a second imaging device is exposed to an optical image of the predetermined part in the sample.

Abstract: An image capturing apparatus is configured to store the control result of a focus position during scanning of segmented regions and determine an initial focus position in scanning of the (n+1)th segmented region, based on the control result stored during scanning of the nth (n is an integer of 1 or more) or earlier segmented region. The foregoing technique allows this image capturing apparatus to roughly determine the initial focus position in the next-scanned segmented region by making use of the control result of the segmented region the scanning of which has been already completed. This can suppress increase in processing time necessary for imaging, by simplification of pre-focus.
