A solid-state image pickup device includes a pixel array section including a plurality of unit pixels, a reference signal production section configured to generate a reference signal and output a detection value, a comparison section configured to compare a reset level upon resetting, a counter configured to start a counting action and continue the counting action to measure a comparison time period in order to obtain count values corresponding to the reset level and the signal level, a detection section configured to retain a result of the comparison of said comparison section when the reset level reaches the detection value as a result of the detection of a black sun phenomenon for a fixed period of time, and a prevention section configured to prevent a black sun phenomenon based on a result of the detection of said detection section.
