Abstract

Provided is an imaging device in which a subject moving within a visual field can be freely expressed with a simple configuration. This imaging device is an imaging device which acquires an image by dividing one imaging period into a plurality of periods for exposure to add for each pixel, and includes an imaging element which includes a photoelectric conversion unit configured to generate a signal charge, and a control unit configured to control an accumulation time of the signal charge generated in the photoelectric conversion unit. The control unit changes the accumulation time in each period obtained by dividing the one imaging period.
