An image sensor comprises, a substrate, a plurality of photoelectric converters mounted on the substrate, for each of which a photoelectric conversion layer is formed of an organic compound layer and is sandwiched between an anode and a cathode so as to perform photoelectric conversion based on incident light, drive circuits for detecting output provided by a signal current generated by the photoelectric converters and for reading signal charges, and a wiring for electrically connecting the photoelectric converters and the drive circuits, wherein, for the plurality of the photoelectric converters that form one read pixels, the size of a photoelectric conversion area differs in accordance with a sensitivity of each of the plurality of photoelectric converters. |
