An imaging device includes: a plurality of pixel units each of which includes a single read terminal and two or more pixels; and a controller that performs read operation with respect to each of the pixel units and starts, in each unit period, the read operation with respect to the predetermined number of the pixel units out of the plurality of the pixel units. The read operation includes sequentially reading pixel signals from the two or more pixels through the read terminal at a rate of one pixel every unit period.
