A solid-state image pickup device, a method for manufacturing the same and a camera are provided to easily manufacture the device by forming a passivation film on a pad electrode using high-refractive index substance. Photodiodes(PD) are disposed in pixel regions serving as a light-receiving surface of a semiconductor substrate, and are partitioned on a pixel basis. Signal transferring portions are disposed on the semiconductor substrate to read signal charges generated and stored in the photodiodes or voltages corresponding to the signal charges. Insulating films(15-17,20-22,25-27,30,31,33) are disposed on the semiconductor substrate to cover the photodiodes. Concave portions(H) are formed in the insulating films above the photodiodes. Pad electrodes(32) are disposed on the insulating films in pad electrode regions. A passivation film(36) of high refractive index covers inner walls of the concave portions. An embedded layer(37) of a high refractive index is filled in the concave portions.
