PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide technique that reduces shading occurring in a solid-state image pickup device.SOLUTION: Each of plural pixels arranged in an array form has, on a semiconductor substrate, a photoelectric conversion element containing a charge accumulation area, a floating diffusion area and a transfer transistor for transferring charges from the charge accumulation area to the floating diffusion area. In a plan view of the surface of the semiconductor substrate, the charge accumulation area of each of the plural pixels contains a portion overlapped with the gate of the transfer transistor. The area of the portion concerned of a first pixel which is far away from a driving circuit configured to supply a signal to the gate of the transfer transistor is larger than the area of the portion concerned of a second pixel which is near to the driving circuit. |
