In a solid-state image pickup device of the type in which a photoconductive substance is formed as a photosensor on a scanning device consisting of charge-transfer elements or MOS matrix elements, light shielding means are provided in order to optically shield the boundaries or spacing between first electrodes each of which represents a picture element and which electrically couples between the scanning device and the photosensor, whereby a high resolution can be obtained and concurrently effects of blooming can be remarkably improved.
