To provide an image pickup device which outputs image the pickup information of a subject and distance information simultaneously from a sensor, and sends a signal inputted by an audio terminal in the vicinity of the subject to a body image pickup device as an infrared signal.

An irradiation light from an infrared-emitting device captures reflected light from the subject on a far-red light absorbing film of each pixel of the sensor by using the sensor having films absorbing RGB and a film absorbing far-red light, and the infrared-emitting device attached near the sensor. Thus, when a distance to the subject exceeds a fixed value at the same time as the distance information is obtained, audio information in the vicinity of the subject inputted into the audio terminal provided in the subject is modulated to the infrared signal and sent to the image pickup device as complementary audio information.
