Solid-state imaging device, driving method thereof and electronic apparatus

The invention relates to a solid-state imaging device, a driving method thereof and an electronic apparatus. The solid-state imaging device includes: a semiconductor substrate including a light receiving surface which is divided according to pixels arranged in a matrix shape and is formed with a photoelectric converting section; an electrochromic film which is formed on the semiconductor substrate on a light incident path corresponding to the photoelectric converting section, in a portion of pixels selected from the pixels, and has light transmittance changing from a first transmittance to a second transmittance according to voltage applied thereto; a lower electrode which is formed below the electrochromic film; and an upper electrode which is formed above the electrochromic film. The solid-state imaging device is capable of enlarging dynamic range without causing the probelms of additional power consumption and unnatural images.
