A solid-state imaging device comprises a pixel unit, an exposure control unit, a first read-out path, and a second read-out path. In the pixel unit, a plurality of photoelectric conversion devices, in which the amount of accumulated electric charges changes in accordance with incident light, are disposed two-dimensionally. The exposure control unit controls the pixel unit such that the start and end of accumulation of electric charges are performed at the same time in the photoelectric conversion devices which belong to a plurality of rows included in the pixel unit. The first read-out path reads out captured image signals of the photoelectric conversion devices in units of one row during a unit read-out period. The second read-out path reads out reset signals of the photoelectric conversion devices which belong to the same row as the row in which the captured image signals are read out during the unit read-out period.
