There is provided a solid-state imaging device capable of correcting a blackening phenomenon caused by intense light, with a small-scale circuit configuration. An AD converter 130 that performs sampling of an output voltage VS on a column signal line 111 includes a comparator 131 that compares the output voltage VS with a ramp-wave reference voltage during a sampling period; a judging circuit 132 that accepts as input an output from the comparator 131 and judges a voltage level of the output voltage VS; and a memory portion 133 that stores, as a digital value, a count value corresponding to the output voltage VS, based on an output from the judging circuit 132. The comparator 131 amplifies a voltage change of the output voltage VS obtained after a lapse of a reset period in which a voltage of a FD portion 103 in a pixel circuit 100 is reset, and the judging circuit 132 judges, based on the voltage change, whether light received by the pixel circuit 100 is intense light, during a predetermined detection period between the reset period and a period in which an output voltage Vrst obtained after the reset is sampled. |
