Abstract
A solid-state imaging device includes light receiving sections which are arranged in an image area on a semiconductor substrate at the same pitch and which light exiting from an imaging optical system enters, condensing lenses respectively arranged above the light receiving sections, and light shielding sections each of which is provided at one end of each of the light receiving sections. The condensing lenses are arranged in a peripheral portion in a first direction in the image area at a first pitch, and arranged in a peripheral portion in a second direction opposite the first direction at a second pitch which is smaller than the first pitch.
