Abstract: An embodiment of the present invention is an imaging system in which a camera unit and a control unit are connected by a video signal transmission line and a clock line, and the camera unit and the control unit operate in synchronization with each other by a horizontal synchronization signal and a vertical synchronization signal indicating reading timing of the video signal. The camera unit includes a signal analysis circuit configured to encode information superimposed on a master clock, and encode a register control signal superimposed on the master clock using a camera clock based on timing of the horizontal synchronization signal or the vertical synchronization signal, and write an imaging condition indicated by the register control signal to a register.

Abstract: A solid-state imaging device includes: a first substrate having first photoelectric converters; a second substrate having second photoelectric converters and laminated on the first substrate; micro lenses disposed on an opposite face facing an imaging lens among faces of the second substrate and which forms an image of light passing through the imaging lens; and a light shielding layer disposed between the first and second photoelectric converters. The light shielding layer includes: a selection portion provided with an opening portion which selectively allows passage of only light passing through a partial region of a pupil region in an exit pupil of the imaging lens among light passing through the micro lens and transmitted through the second photoelectric converter; and a light shielding portion which shields an entire light passing through the micro lens and transmitted through the second photoelectric converter.
