ABSTRACT:
Pixels are two-dimensionally arrayed, each of the pixels having a first photoelectric conversion section which is divided into a plurality of regions to perform photoelectric conversions and a second photoelectric conversion section whose outer periphery is surrounded with the plurality of regions of the first photoelectric conversion section and which is divided into a plurality of regions to perform photoelectric conversion. In addition, micro-optical systems are arrayed so as to correspond to the pixels, the micro-optical systems guiding light of an object to the pixels. A division manner of the plurality of regions of the first photoelectric conversion section is different from a division manner of the plurality of regions of the second photoelectric conversion section.
