    Abstract: Provided are a digital photographing apparatus in which a read-out mode may be changed when capturing a moving image, and a method of controlling the digital photographing apparatus. The method includes capturing a moving image having a predetermined frame rate in a first read-out mode, estimating a brightness of surroundings and then determining a shutter speed of a frame to be currently captured based on the estimated brightness of the surroundings, determining whether or not an exposure time that is dependent on the shutter speed is longer than a predetermined time period, and changing the first read-out mode to a second read-out mode that has a shorter read-out time than the first read-out mode when the exposure time is longer than the predetermined time period.

    Abstract: Imaging systems are provided for high speed, high resolution imaging of biochemical materials. In an example embodiment, an imaging system comprises an objective lens component, a line generator, a digital camera, a positioning stage, and a scan mirror. The line generator generates a line of light that is scanned across a portion of a substrate that is mounted on the positioning stage. The positioning stage moves the substrate in a particular direction that is substantially normal to an optical axis of the objective lens component. The camera collects an image of the portion of the substrate through the objective lens component. The scan mirror moves in coordination with the positioning stage, while the line of light is being scanned across the portion of the substrate and the substrate is being moved in the particular direction, in order to keep the image still with respect to the camera while the image is being collected by the camera.

    Abstract: Provided is a solid-state image pickup device including a pixel section arranged with multiple pixel circuits in matrix having functions for converting an optical signal to an electrical signal and for accumulating the electrical signal depending on an exposure time, and a pixel driving section capable of driving through a control line to reset, accumulate, transfer, and output signal electric charge of the pixel section. The pixel section may have a pixel shared structure arranged with one selection control line, one reset control line, and multiple transfer control lines, including a readout-pixel section and an unread-pixel section in its entirety. The pixel driving section includes a pixel control section where an unread-pixel is normally fixed in a reset state. When reading a readout-pixel in a shared relationship, if its address is selected or a selection signal becomes active, the unread-pixel reset-state is cancelled to turn into an unread state.
