A focusing device includes a distance measurer, a focus adjuster, a focusing judge, and an area display. The focus adjuster measures area subject distances that are distances to a plurality of distance-measuring areas on a subject. The focus adjuster adjusts a focus to focus on the distance-measuring area. The focusing judge determines whether or not the distance-measuring area is a focus-adjustable area for which the focus adjuster can adjust a focus, based on the area subject distance. The area display displays the focus-adjustable area, such that one of the focus-adjustable areas for which the focus adjuster adjusts a focus can be selected as a selected area, based on the area subject distance.
