To solve at least one of various problems in an image sensor in a 2PD scheme. A solid-state image pickup element includes a plurality of pixels each including a photoelectric conversion element formed on a silicon substrate, in which some pixels in the plurality of pixels each have the photoelectric conversion element partitioned by a first-type separating region extending in a plate shape in a direction along a thickness direction of the silicon substrate, and other pixels in the plurality of pixels each have the photoelectric conversion element partitioned by a second-type separating region formed with a material different from a material of the first-type separating region, the second-type separating region extending in a plate shape in the direction along the thickness direction of the silicon substrate.
