Zusammenfassung:An image capturing apparatus comprises a photoelectric conversion element configured to include an avalanche photodiode, a voltage control that controls the reverse bias voltage applied to the avalanche photodiode, and an exposure control that controls the exposure period of the photoelectric conversion element, wherein voltage control is configured to perform a change of the reverse bias voltage during a predetermined period other than the exposure periods in two consecutive frame periods, wherein the predetermined period is set by changing a blank period within two consecutive frame periods.
