An image pickup apparatus is configured with an image pickup device on which a plurality of bumps are arranged in line on an outer circumferential portion of a light receiving surface; and a flexible wiring board including a plurality of inner leads each of which is configured with a distal end portion, a bending portion and a rear end portion, the distal end portion being compression-bonded to a bump, and the rear end portion being arranged parallel to a side face of the image pickup device with the bending portion interposed between the distal end portion and the rear end portion. A height of a light receiving portion side of the bumps is lower than a height of a side face side; and each of the inner leads is plastically transformed according to a shape of a top face of the bumps.
