Claim 13:
14. The imaging device according to claim 13, wherein:
in a situation where the at least one controllable item includes the conversion gain and the analog gain, and the amount of light exposure and the exposure time are uncontrollable items, when the ratio of the low light-transmittance pixels saturated in the target region is higher than the second ratio,
the set value calculation unit sets the first conversion gain or the second conversion gain in a predetermined pattern for the low light-transmittance pixels and the high light-transmittance pixels,
wherein the set value calculation unit sets the first analog gain for a pixel that is set to the first conversion gain, and sets the second analog gain for a pixel that is set to the second conversion gain.
