Disclosed herein is an XY-addressing solid-state imaging apparatus including a solid-state imaging device having a plurality of two-dimensionally arranged pixels and a horizontal and vertical scanning circuits for reading pixel signals of the solid-state imaging device; a shift register of at least one of the horizontal and vertical scanning circuits including shift register units serially connected in a large number of stages for transferring information related to scan location by clock and a storing section connected through a storing switch and transmitting switch to each shift register unit; the solid-state imaging apparatus also includes a drive control means for causing the storing section to store a scan start location information in a scan start location setting period before a main scanning so that the scan start location information is transmitted from the storing section in the main scanning to start scanning from a desired scan start location and for effecting the storing of the scan start location information also in the main scanning.
