A solid-state imaging unit includes: a pixel section including a plurality of pixels each including a photoelectric conversion section, a charge-voltage conversion section, and a transfer transistor transferring charge accumulated in the photoelectric conversion section to the charge-voltage conversion section; and a storage section storing information about an optimum value of an intermediate voltage to be applied to a gate of the transfer transistor at time of an intermediate transfer operation when a signal charge accumulated in the photoelectric conversion section is divided to be read in a predetermined times of the intermediate transfer operations and a complete transfer operation.
