A solid-state image-sensing device has a photosensitive element that produces
an
electric signal commensurate with the amount of light incident thereon, a transistor
of which the first electrode and the control electrode are connected to one electrode
of the photosensitive element, and a resetting portion for resetting the transistor
by feeding a predetermined pulse signal to the second electrode of the transistor.
The resetting portion resets the transistor in such a way as to inhibit the transistor
from operating in a subthreshold region when the amount of light incident on the
photosensitive element is below a predetermined level.
