A photoelectric conversion device includes a plurality of avalanche photodiodes, a plurality of accumulating circuits, and an interpolation unit. A plurality of first accumulating circuits generate, based on output signals of a plurality of first avalanche photodiodes, a plurality of first pixel values by accumulating values weighted by a first weight that varies in a predetermined cycle. A plurality of second accumulating circuits generate, based on output signals of a plurality of second avalanche photodiodes, a plurality of second pixel values by accumulating values weighted by a second weight that has values different from the first weight and that varies in a predetermined cycle. The interpolation unit generates, by interpolation processing using a part of the plurality of first pixel values, a first interpolation pixel value at first representative coordinates of a first avalanche photodiode corresponding to a first pixel value used in the interpolation processing.
