There is provided a display including: a pixel array part configured to include pixel circuits arranged in a matrix, each of the pixel circuits having a drive transistor, a holding capacitor, an electro-optical element, a sampling transistor, and an initialization transistor, a drive current based on information held in the holding capacitor being produced by the drive transistor and being applied to the electro-optical element for light emission of the electro-optical element; and a controller configured to include a write scanner, a horizontal driver, and an initialization scanner.

In an imaging apparatus capable of selectively performing an imaging operation in normal imaging mode and that in composite imaging mode, auto exposure control is stopped after the auto exposure control for long-time exposure image signals and short-time exposure image signals is temporarily completed in composite imaging mode and if, after the auto exposure control is stopped, a predetermined brightness change in images is detected continuously for a predetermined time or longer based on brightness values detected from the images obtained from a composite image signal, the imaging mode of the imaging apparatus is switched from the composite imaging mode to the normal imaging mode.

A liquid crystal display device having includes a light guide plate having a surface thereof serving as an illuminating surface region opposite to a liquid crystal display panel, light sources mounted on a flexible printed-circuit board and provided on a side face of the light guide plate, an optical sheet member interposed between the liquid crystal display panel and the light guide plate. The side surfaces of the light guide plate with the light sources provided thereon have a ridge-like inclined surface formed thereon, when viewed from the illuminating surface, and the ridge-like inclined surfaces serve as a light-receiving surface with the light source arranged thereon.

A microcomputer calculates a target brightness per brightness mode. Each projection video image display device specifies a target control current value corresponding to a calculated target brightness corresponding to a brightness mode set to the projection video image display device. Each projection video image display device supplies a current indicating the specified control current value to a light source of the projection video image display device.

Grayscale values for previous and current frames are different, and therefore, an overshoot voltage, which has a higher absolute value than a signal voltage, are applied to a data signal line. Next, in a second drive frame, normal drive is performed, so that a signal voltage of the same polarity as the overshoot voltage is written to the data signal line. Moreover, in a first drive frame of a third pause drive period, the grayscale values for the previous and current frames are equal, and also greater than or equal to a boundary value, and therefore, undershoot drive is performed. An undershoot voltage, which has a lower absolute value than a signal voltage, is applied to the data signal line. Next, in a second drive frame, normal drive is performed, so that a signal voltage of the same polarity as the undershoot voltage is written to the data signal line.

A display device includes: a display unit having a plurality of pixels each including a light emitting element, a drive transistor and a correction transistor, a scan line, a signal line, a power supply line and a gate line connected to the pixels; a scan line drive circuit applying a selection pulse to the scan line; and a signal line drive circuit writing a video signal to a pixel selected by the scan line drive circuit by applying a video signal voltage to the signal line. The drive transistor and the correction transistor are connected to each other in series on a path between the power supply line and the light emitting element in each of the pixels. Gate voltage for correction to be applied to the gate of the correction transistor via the gate line is set individually in each of unit regions in the display unit.

The image capturing apparatus includes an image capturing unit for capturing a subject image, a calculating unit for calculating an exposure amount at a time of capturing by the image capturing unit, a range correction unit for performing range correction for compressing a range of luminance in an image signal captured by the image capturing unit, an identification unit for identifying a luminance change amount of an image signal caused by range correction, and a changing unit for, based on the luminance change amount identified by the identification unit, changing at least one of the exposure amount and a reference luminance value in an input/output characteristic in a case of performing the range correction.
