Abstract

Provided is an image sensor including a color separating lens array. The image sensor includes a sensor substrate including a first pixel configured to sense first wavelength light, and a second pixel configured to sense second wavelength light; and a color separating lens array including a first wavelength light condensing region in which the first wavelength light is condensed onto the first pixel, wherein an area of the first wavelength light condensing region is greater than an area of the first pixel, and a distance between the sensor substrate and the color separating lens array is less than a focal distance of the first wavelength light condensing region with respect to the first wavelength light.
