Abstract: A digital camera including a CCD imager and a complementary color filter mounted on a light receiving surface thereof. The complementary color filter has color blocks each having 8 rows×4 columns while CCD imager has, at its light receiving surface, pixel blocks corresponding to those color blocks. The color block is assigned, in its each row, with all the kinds of color components, i.e., G, Mg, Ye and Cy, at least one in number per kind. A timing generator reads from respective columns pixel signals including all the kinds of color components at least one in number per kind, and transfers the read pixel signals in vertical direction. The timing generator also transfers the pixel signals in a horizontal direction each time vertical transfer by 8 rows has been completed.

Abstract: A digital camera includes a shutter button. When taking a still picture of a subject in response to operation of the shutter button, a TG carries out first exposure and second exposure. The first exposure and the second exposure are simultaneously started by the suspension of outputting a charge sweep-out pulse. Elapsing a first exposure period, the TG reads a first charge out of a part of the light-receiving elements, thereby ending the first exposure. Elapsing a second exposure period, a mechanical shutter is closed thereby ending the second exposure. A second charge produced due to the second exposure is read out after completing the transfer of the first charge. The first and second charges outputted from the CCD imager are combined together by an image combining circuit.

Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes 1280 of vertical transfer registers which are respectively assigned to 1280 of vertical lines. Each vertical line is formed by light receiving elements being successive in a vertical direction. Electric charges generated at 640 of the odd-numbered vertical lines among the 1280 of vertical lines are applied to one of horizontal transfer registers, and electric charges generated at 640 of the even-numbered vertical lines are applied to the other of the horizontal transfer registers. The electric charges are output from a CCD imager via these horizontal transfer registers.
