In one example, a solid-state imaging device includes a pixel array with pixels arrayed in a matrix. The pixels include first pixels that respectively include a photoelectric conversion section that performs photoelectric conversion of incident light; a transfer transistor that controls transfer of a charge generated in the photoelectric conversion section; a floating diffusion region that accumulates the charge transferred from the photoelectric conversion section via the transfer transistor; and an amplification transistor that causes a voltage signal corresponding to the charge accumulated in the floating diffusion region to emerge in a signal line. The first pixels are arrayed in a first diagonal direction in the pixel array, and at least two of the first pixels arrayed in the first diagonal direction share one region defined as the floating diffusion region.
