To provide an imaging device that captures a main subject within a field of view and enables shooting while checking the focus state, an imaging system, an imaging method, and a program.SOLUTION: An imaging device 1 includes: an imaging element 102 that generates a first image by imaging a first field of view by an optical system 101 having a first angle of view; a resizing unit 106 that performs resizing processing to generate a resized image on the basis of focal length information about the focal length input from an imaging device 2 for a second image input from the imaging device 2; a detection unit 107 that detects a region where the correlation between the first image and the resized image is equal to or greater than a predetermined value as a matching area; and an image processing unit 108 that performs image processing on the first image on the basis of the matching area.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 3 【課題】撮影視野内に主要被写体を捉えつつ、ピント状態を確認しながら撮影することができる撮像装置、撮像システム、撮像方法およびプログラムを提供する。【解決手段】撮像装置１は、第１の画角を有する光学系１０１によって第１の撮影視野を撮像することで第１の画像を生成する撮像素子１０２と、撮像装置２から入力された第２の画像に対して、撮像装置２から入力された焦点距離に関する焦点距離情報に基づいて、リサイズ処理を行ってリサイズ画像を生成するリサイズ部１０６と、第１の画像とリサイズ画像との相関が所定値以上の領域を一致領域として検出する検出部１０７と、一致領域に基づいて、第１の画像に画像処理を行う画像処理部１０８と、を備える。【選択図】図３
