ABSTRACT:
A close contact type imaging device is an imaging device for acquiring an image of an object in a state that the object is in close contact to an image sensor. This imaging device has an angle limiting filter. The angle limiting filter is constructed from: a glass substrate of a parallel plate; and a dielectric multilayer film provided on the glass substrate. This angle limiting filter transmits light within a particular wavelength range approximately perpendicularly incident onto the surface, and shields light outside the particular wavelength range and light within the particular wavelength obliquely incident onto the surface.
