ABSTRACT:
A solid-state imaging device including a plurality of light receiving sections; a pixel area vertical transfer register section for transferring, column by column, charges generated by the plurality of light receiving sections; a dummy area vertical transfer register section for transferring, column by column in the vertical direction, the charges which have been transferred by the pixel area vertical transfer register section, the dummy area vertical transfer register section providing a control such that the transfer of the charges of at least one of the plurality of columns is performed in the same manner as the charges in the other columns in one case, and in a different manner from the transfer of the charges in the other columns in another case; and a horizontal transfer register section for transferring, in a horizontal direction, the charges which have been transferred from the dummy area vertical transfer register section.
