Abstract
In image processing of multi-viewpoint image data including image data captured with different focal lengths, an image of high quality, distance information with high precision, etc., are obtained by utilizing image data with different angles of view (focal lengths). An image processing device for generating combined image data using multi-viewpoint image data including image data acquired with different focal lengths, includes a resolution converting unit configured to perform resolution conversion for at least part of image data in multi-viewpoint image data in accordance with a focal length to be output and an image combining unit configured to generate combined image data with the focal length to be output using the resolution-converted image data.
