A photodetection apparatus according to one embodiment has a photodetection element, first reset circuitry configured to select whether to set on-resistance between a first voltage node and a terminal of the photodetection element to a first value, second reset circuitry configured to select whether to set the on-resistance to a second value smaller than the first value, and control circuitry configured to set the on-resistance to the first value by the first reset circuitry after the photodetection element detects light, and set the on-resistance to the second value by the second reset circuitry after the first reset circuitry select to set the on-resistance to the first value.
