Zusammenfassung:To provide an imaging apparatus which can acquire a satisfactory captured image having reduced image defect.SOLUTION: An imaging apparatus includes: a plurality of pixel cells arranged in a matrix, each of which has a plurality of pixels that generate pixel signals by photoelectric conversion, an FD capacitor that is shared by the plurality of pixels and stores the pixel signals, and a plurality of selection transistors that select an output destination of the pixel signals stored in the FD capacitor; a vertical selection line for supplying a selection signal for controlling an open/close state therethrough to the selection transistor; and a vertical signal line that is commonly connected to the plurality of pixel cells arranged in a column direction, and is also commonly connected to 2 pixel cells adjacent in a row direction.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 8 【課題】画像不良を低減した良好な撮像画像を取得できる撮像装置を提供する。【解決手段】撮像装置が、光電変換によって画素信号を生成する複数の画素と、複数の画素に共有され画素信号を蓄積するFD容量と、FD容量に蓄積された画素信号の出力先を選択する複数の選択トランジスタと、を各々が備えると共に、行列状に配列された複数の画素セルと、開閉状態を制御する選択信号を選択トランジスタに供給する垂直選択線と、列方向に配列された複数の前記画素セルに共通して接続すると共に、行方向に隣接する2つの前記画素セルに共通して接続する垂直信号線と、を有する。【選択図】図8
