  • Publication number: 20030011699
    Abstract: A digital camera with interchangeable displays having a built-in display device and an image output terminal for transmitting image signals to an external monitor device, characterised in that it has a plurality of means for processing the image, outputting a suitable image to the built-in display device or to the external monitor device by switching between the means for processing the image on the basis of prescribed signals.

  • Patent number: 5677528
    Abstract: A solid-state imaging apparatus having color separation filters is provided which produces a signal with reduced chrominance and luminance moire and thereby improves resolution, and the spectral characteristics of the color filters for the solid-state imaging apparatus are so set that when the spectral characteristic of each color filter is multiplied by a prescribed coefficient, the sum of four or two horizontally adjacent pixels becomes approximately equal between two vertically adjacent lines. A coefficient multiplying circuit multiplies an output signal from each color filter by the prescribed coefficient, and signal processing is performed.

  • Patent number: 5614947
    Abstract: A solid state imaging apparatus includes two-dimensional frequency process which is applied to an output signal from each pixel of a progressive scan-type CCD. The CCD has an an arrangement of color separation filters without making carriers in the horizontal and vertical directions of the two-dimensional frequency to obtain chrominance signals with less moire in the horizontal and vertical directions of the two-dimensional frequency. A luminance signal with less moire in the horizontal and vertical directions of the two-dimensional frequency can be obtained by interpolating with the ratio of a chrominance signal with less moire.
