An extended depth of field forming device having: an image pickup element which has a plurality of pixels and performs photoelectric conversion of an optical image and generates image signals based on the optical image; an image pickup optical system which creates an optical image of a subject; and an image calculation section which calculates image signals generated by said image pickup element for generating an extended depth of field, wherein each pixel of the image pickup element performs photoelectric conversion of light including a plurality of wavelength regions, independently at each layer of the image pickup element located in different depth and the image pickup optical system forms a plurality of images at different positions on the optical axis and the image calculation section creates color information of the optical image of the subject for each pixel.
