An endoscope includes an insertion portion to be inserted into a subject to be observed, a first imaging unit and a second imaging unit arranged side by side in a distal end portion of the insertion portion, and a control unit which generates a 3D image from captured images taken by the first imaging unit and the second imaging unit. An optical axis of the first imaging unit can be changed to enable an image capturing area of the first imaging unit to be moved along a direction in which the first imaging unit and the second imaging unit are arranged. The endoscope includes an angle operation unit to change the inclination angle of the optical axis of the first imaging unit and an angle adjustment mechanism which changes the inclination angle of the optical axis of the first imaging unit according to an operation of the angle operation unit.
