A camera includes an image capture unit which captures the image of a
subject to obtain image data, a pixel interpolation unit which, on the
basis of pixel data from multiple pixels arranged on a line in the image
data obtained by the image capture unit, creates image data in an
interpolation position on the line, and a storage unit which is stored
with common coefficient data for pixel data from multiple pixels which
are n-th pixels counted from the interpolation position in opposite
directions on the line, the pixel interpolation unit performing
interpolation operations on the pixel data from the n-th pixels using the
coefficient data stored in the storage unit to thereby create the image
data in the interpolation position.
