ABSTRACT:
A solid-state imaging apparatus of the present invention including: a pixel section having pixels two-dimensionally disposed in a row and column directions each containing a photoelectric conversion section and an amplification section for amplifying and outputting as pixel signal an output of the photoelectric conversion section; a first scanning section for selecting rows to be read of the pixel section; a noise suppressing section for effecting noise suppression of the pixel signals; a second scanning section for causing pixel signals having gone through the noise suppressing section to be outputted from a plurality of horizontal signal lines; and a control section having a plurality of drive modes to be set, different in the number of the horizontal signal lines from which the pixel signals are outputted, and, when a drive mode is set, changing in accordance with the set drive mode the manner of connection of a function device within the noise suppressing section associated with the horizontal signal lines pertinent to the drive mode.
