Provided is a solid-state image pickup device including: a plurality of pixels, each of which includes a photoelectric conversion portion and a pixel transistor formed in a front surface side of a substrate, wherein a rear surface side of the substrate is set as a light receiving plane of the photoelectric conversion portion; and an element, which becomes a passive element or an active element, which is disposed in the front surface side of the substrate so as to be superimposed on the photoelectric conversion portion.

Solid-state image pickup device, method of manufacturing thereof, and electronic apparatus

An imaging apparatus includes: an imaging unit configured to image an image using an imaging device; an image obtaining unit configured to obtain a plurality of images equivalent to the time of dark, imaged by the imaging unit; a registering unit configured to register, with an image obtained by the image obtaining unit, the address and change amount of a pixel where the output value of the pixel changes so as to exceed a predetermined threshold; and a correcting unit configured to correct, when taking a pixel corresponding to an address registered by the registering unit as a processing object pixel, the pixel value of the processing object pixel based on comparison between difference of the output values of the processing object pixel and a peripheral pixel of the processing object pixel, and the change amount of the processing object pixel.
