PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an optical pickup device capable of appropriately performing shaping of a cross-sectional shape of each light flux and conversion of intensity distribution even if a light source unit is used in which a plurality of light emitting points are adjacently provided. SOLUTION: The optical pickup unit 10 is configured with a light source unit 20 in which a plurality of light emitting points emitting lights in different wavelengths are adjacently provided, a beam shaping element 40 for shaping the light flux to have a divergence angle different from that at the incidence, a coupling element 12, and an objective optical element 15 for converging the emitted light flux from the coupling element on a recording face of an optical information recording medium for forming a condensing spot. The distance from each light emitting point to a surface of a protection layer for protecting the recording surface is stabilized irrespective of kinds of the optical information recording medium, and the condensing spot is formed by using a light flux of a long wavelength for the optical information recording medium with a thick protection layer while using a light flux of a short wavelength for the optical information recording medium with a thin protection layer.
