A light source control apparatus that includes a light quantity detection
unit that respectively detects light quantities of three colors of light
emitted from a light source part. A light quantity ratio calculation unit
that then calculates light quantity ratios of reflection light detected
by the light quantity detection unit. When the light quantity detection
unit detects light quantities of respective reference of the lights
emitted from the light source part, a determination unit determines
whether or not the light quantity ratios calculated by the light quantity
ratio calculation unit are within a predetermined range. Responsive to
the determination of the determining unit, a light quantity ratio
adjustment unit adjusts the light quantity ratios of the lights emitted
from the light source part on the basis of the light quantity of
green-colored reflection light emitted from the light source part.
