For example, the imaging device 6 can omit any image data within the region 93 of the image 84 when generating the intermediate image 81. The imaging device 6 can determine the height (e.g., a number of rows to omit) of the region 93 based on and/or using the following equation (1) below. Equation (2) can similarly be used to determine an amount of horizontal shift (e.g., in columns of pixels) that may be applied to the image 84. The height of the region 93 is generally equivalent to the amount of vertical image “shift” exhibited when comparing the images 81 and 84. For example, in addition to omitting image data from the region 93 of the image 84, the image 81 will also include a region 99 generally having only “empty” pixels. The region 99 generally has the same height as the region 93. After this “shifting” operation, a pixel 91 of the intermediate image 81 that corresponds to the optical axis 61 is located at the center of the intermediate image 81.
