Zusammenfassung:The present technology relates to a solid-state imaging device that detects both electrons and holes to perform high dynamic range imaging, obtaining a high-quality image, a method of driving the same, and an electronic apparatus. The solid-state imaging device includes a pixel having a photodiode that performs photoelectric conversion on incident light, and a driving control unit configured to control driving of the pixel. The pixel stores a first charge generated by the photoelectric conversion in the photodiode and stores a second charge generated by the photoelectric conversion in a first capacitor provided in a pixel separation portion. The driving control unit causes a pixel signal due to the second charge stored in the first capacitor to be output and then a pixel signal due to the first charge stored in the photodiode to be output. The present technology may be applied, for example, to a solid-state imaging device or the like that detects both electrons and holes to perform high dynamic range imaging.
