摘要：An image capturing apparatus comprises an image sensor on which a plurality ofpixels are two-dimensionally arranged, and which has a plurality of image forming pixelsand a plurality of types of focus detecting pixels that are discretely arranged among theplurality of image forming pixels and respectively have different distributions of received

light, and selection means for, when the plurality of pixels are read out from the imagesensor while thinning out the plurality of pixels, selecting one thinning-out read-outmode from a plurality of thinning-out read-out modes having different thinning-outphases of the plurality of pixels, wherein the plurality of types of focus detecting pixelsare arranged so that in each thinning-out read-out mode, only signals of the focusdetecting pixels of one type of focus detecting pixels are read out, and signals of thefocus detecting pixels of other types are not read out.
