A developing device includes a developer container containing magnetic particles a developer holding unit (26) formed at an opening portion of the developer container with the developer holding unit rotating while holding a developer, a magnetic field generating unit placed in the developer holding unit, a magnet (22) placed along a circumferential direction of the developer holding unit to form a magnetic seal between the magnet and the developer holding unit, and a magnetic unit (23) placed to be adjacent to the magnet. The developing device attains a reduction in driving torque and a high magnetic sealing performance. <IMAGE> |
