In an image pick-up apparatus, a plurality of pixels, each pairing a semiconductor conversion element for converting an incident electromagnetic wave to an electric signal and a thin film transistor connected to the semiconductor conversion element, is arranged in a two-dimensional state on a substrate. The image pick-up apparatus includes gate wiring to which gate electrodes of thin film transistors of a plurality of pixels arranged in one direction are commonly connected, and signal wiring to which source electrodes or drain electrodes of thin film transistors of a plurality of pixels arranged in a direction different from the one direction are commonly connected on the substrate. Protection layers are arranged on the thin film transistors, the gate wiring and the signal wiring. The protection layers formed at least at the same time. Then, the protection layers are removed in at least a part or all of regions in which the semiconductor conversion elements are formed.
