A production method of a solid-state imaging device in which microlenses are arranged adjacent to each other on a substrate, includes: a first process of forming first microlenses on a surface of the substrate leaving space therebetween for providing second microlenses; and a second process of applying an overcoating material onto the surface of the substrate on which the first microlenses are formed, drying the overcoating material, exposing the overcoating material to light using a gray scale mask, and developing the exposed overcoating material, so as to form second microlenses in the space between the first microlenses adjacent to each other.
