<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To simplify the circuit configuration and control of an imaging device where a focus detecting pixel array is partly disposed in the two-dimensional arrays of imaging pixels. <P>SOLUTION: In the imaging device where the imaging pixels 310 for imaging an image formed by an optical system are two-dimensionally arrayed, first focus detecting elements 312 and second focus detecting elements 313 for detecting the focusing state of the optical system are partly and linearly arrayed by turns in place of the imaging pixels 310. The first focus detecting element 312 includes a first photoelectric conversion section for receiving light passing through one of a pair of areas of the exit pupil of the optical system through a microlens. The second focus detecting pixel 313 includes a second photoelectric conversion section for receiving the light passing through the other area through the microlens. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2009,JPO&INPIT |
