Systems and methods for implementing array cameras configured to perform super-resolution processing to generate higher resolution super-resolved images using a plurality of captured images and lens stack arrays that can be utilized in array cameras are disclosed. An imaging device in accordance with one embodiment of the invention includes at least one imager array, and each imager in the array comprises a plurality of light sensing elements and a lens stack including at least one lens surface, where the lens stack is configured to form an image on the light sensing elements, control circuitry configured to capture images formed on the light sensing elements of each of the imagers, and a super-resolution processing module configured to generate at least one higher resolution super-resolved image using a plurality of the captured images.

Disclosed is an image capture apparatus that comprises first and second movable components that are movable in a direction orthogonal to an optical axis of an imaging optical system, and are located in an optical path. The image capture apparatus further comprises first driving circuitry that moves the first movable component and second driving circuitry that moves the second movable component. The image capture apparatus controls the first driving circuitry and the second driving circuitry so as to achieve a pseudo optical low-pass filter function by cyclically moving the first movable component and the second movable component in the direction orthogonal to the optical axis.
