Abstract:
While realizing a broad dynamic range, the present technology relates to a solid-state image pickup device and control method therefor, and electronic apparatus aiming at enabling an influence of PLS to be suppressed. The solid-state image pickup device includes a pixel array unit in which a plurality of pixels are arrayed. A portion of pixels in the pixel array unit are a unit pixel at least having one photoelectric conversion element and over flow integration capacitor. Further, the solid-state image pickup device includes one AD converter for one or more unit pixels in the pixel array unit. The present technology is applicable to, for example, the solid-state image pickup.
