PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an imaging element capable of simultaneously capturing a color image and a near-infrared image.SOLUTION: An imaging element 100 includes a plurality of photoelectric conversion units 40 which are formed on a substrate and arranged in an array, and upon which light is incident via a dual pass filter 70 that has a transmission band in visible light and near-infrared light in a prescribed range. The photoelectric conversion units include a photoelectric conversion unit for visible light and a photoelectric conversion unit for near-infrared light. The photoelectric conversion unit for visible light comprises a photoelectric conversion unit for red, a photoelectric conversion unit for green, and a photoelectric conversion unit for blue.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 1 【課題】カラー画像と近赤外画像とを同時に取得できる撮像素子を提供する。【解決手段】撮像素子１００は、可視光と所定の範囲の近赤外光とに透過帯を有するデュアルパスフィルタ７０を介して光が入射する、基板に形成されアレイ状に配された複数の光電変換部４０を含んでいる。複数の光電変換部は可視光用の光電変換部と近赤外光用の光電変換部とを含んでいる。可視光用の光電変換部は、赤色用の光電変換部、緑色用の光電変換部及び青色用の光電変換部とから成る。【選択図】図１
