PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a focus detection device that enables any one of a subject image or a background to be focused on even when the subject image is smaller or larger with respect to the background. ! SOLUTION: A focus detection device comprises: focus detection means for computing a plurality of focus detection parameters by performing a focus detection for each division area of a plurality of division areas in a focus detection area, and determining a focus adjustment parameter out of the plurality of focus detection parameters; and subject image area discrimination means for discriminating a plurality of subject image areas which includes a prescribed area corresponding to the focus detection area and an imaging plane and corresponds to each of a plurality of subject images formed respectively in the prescribed area by an optical system in the prescribed area. When the plurality of subject image areas is discriminated in the prescribed area, the focus detection means is configured to deter |
