A solid-state image pickup device includes a plurality of pixels arranged in rows and columns on a semiconductor substrate. A photoelectric converter of each pixel includes a photoelectric conversion film between a pixel electrode and a transparent electrode. An amplifier transistor has a gate connected to the pixel electrode, and a reset transistor has a source connected to the pixel electrode. The solid-state image pickup device performs: hard reset operation in which a first reset voltage is applied to the drain of the reset transistor, and then the reset transistor is turned on; and soft reset operation in which a second reset voltage which has a higher level than the first reset voltage is applied to the drain of the reset transistor, and then a pulse in a negative direction is applied to the source of the reset transistor via a capacitor. |
