Disclosed herein is a solid-state imaging device including: a plurality of pixel circuits each of which converts an optical signal into a pixel signal; a load current source circuit adapted to supply a load current, used to read out the pixel signal from the plurality of pixel circuits, to the pixel circuits on a column-by-column basis; a signal readout circuit adapted to read out a reference signal and the pixel signal from the pixel circuits on a row-by-row basis and output the difference between the reference and pixel signals that have been read out; and a control signal generation circuit adapted to generate a maintenance control signal used to maintain the load current constant during a readout period that lasts from when the reference signal is read out by the signal readout circuit to when the pixel signal is read out by the signal readout circuit.
