The presence/absence of a face in an image and the type of imaging mode during imaging (such as a landscape imaging mode and a close-up imaging mode) of the image acquired by imaging and the like are detected. Images are automatically classified by groups based on the detected information (classification information). A plurality of images classified by the groups are connected to create a multi-image file (MP file), and the MP file is recorded in a recording medium. As a result, the plurality of classified images can be managed altogether (without dissipation), and the plurality of classified images can be reproduced by providing the multi-image file even if a reproducer does not have a classification function.

A digital still camera includes a CCD image sensor for photographing an object image by photoelectric conversion, to obtain image data. A face detector determines a face feature value of a human face at an object image by image recognition according to the image data, and detects the face. A stability checker monitors the face feature value, and outputs stable result information when the face feature value is within a prescribed range consecutively for time of a predetermined length or consecutively for a predetermined number of times. A controller automatically starts image pickup of the CCD image sensor when the stable result information is output by the first stability checker.

A solid-state imaging device is provided and has a plurality of pixel parts including three photoelectric conversion layers stacked above a semiconductor substrate, the plurality of pixel parts being arranged above the semiconductor substrate. The three photoelectric conversion layers, respectively, included in one pixel part are interposed between pixel electrode layers and opposing electrode layers. A region thus interposed is made a pixel region that generates a signal charge for formation of one pixel data. The pixel region includes a convex portion and a concave portion as viewed in plane view, and a part of the convex portion is arranged in a manner to put in a concave portion in a pixel region of an adjacent pixel part.

A producing method of producing a solid state pickup device is provided. Imaging elements are formed on a wafer in a matrix form. Each of the imaging elements has a light receiving surface and plural contact points. Receiving surface border portions are formed on a glass plate to protrude therefrom in a matrix form by etching. The receiving surface border portions are attached to the wafer to surround the light receiving surface in each of the receiving surface border portions. The light receiving surface is spaced from the glass plate. The glass plate is diced outside respectively the receiving surface border portions, to form shield glass for covering the light receiving surface. The wafer is diced for each of the imaging elements, to obtain the solid state pickup device having the shield glass and one of the imaging elements.

A specific target included in an image is detected by a specific target detection unit based on a specific target evaluation value representing likeliness of the specific target. Using a first white balance correction value calculation unit for obtaining a first white balance correction value for the region of the image other than the specific target, a second white balance correction value calculation unit for obtaining a second white balance correction value for the specific target region, and a white balance correction value comparison unit for making a comparison between the first and second white balance correction values, white balance in the region other than the specific target is corrected using the first white balance correction value, and white balance in the specific target region is corrected using the second white balance correction value, if the white balance correction values are different from each other.

In a solid-state image sensor in which a large number of pixel cells each comprised of a combination of a main photosensitive pixel having a relatively large area and a subsidiary photosensitive pixel having a relatively small area are arranged, if the subsidiary photosensitive pixel has a defect for any pixel cell, division photometry data during AE processing is read, and the defective pixel is replaced with a value obtained by dividing the output value of the main photosensitive pixel at the same position by a sensitivity ratio only for a section for which it is determined that the main photosensitive pixel is not saturated. Thus, the pixel value of a defective pixel can be accurately corrected without causing a reduction in resolution sensitivity compared to a conventional method of correcting a defective pixel using surrounding pixel information.
