Abstract: An imaging device includes a first pixel, a second pixel, and a correction circuit. First signals respectively corresponding to the first pixel and the second pixel are input to the correction circuit. The correction circuit outputs second signals in response to the first signals. Each of the first pixel and the second pixel includes a photoelectric converter, a charge storage region, and a capacitance circuit. The photoelectric converter converts light into signal charges. The charge storage region stores the signal charges. The capacitance circuit varies a capacitance value of the charge storage region in response to a potential of the charge storage region. The correction circuit corrects the first signal of at least one of the first pixel or the second pixel to the second signal in a case where the same amount of light is incident on the first pixel and the second pixel.
