    摘要: A solid-state image sensor includes photo-sensitive cells arranged in a bidimensional array for converting incident light to corresponding signal charges. Vertical transfer paths transfer the signal charges read out from the photo-sensitive cells in the vertical direction. The photo-sensitive cells are made up of first and second photo-sensitive cells each having particular sensitivity to incident light. The first and second photo-sensitive cells are positioned at one diagonal corners and the other diagonal corners, respectively, at opposite sides of each vertical transfer path such that the first and second photo-sensitive cells have photo-sensitive areas whose centers of gravity form a rectangle when connected by a virtual line.

    摘要: In a solid-state image pickup apparatus, an image pickup section includes a color separating section having color filters assigned to three primary colors for separating colors of light incident from a desired scene. The color filters assigned to the color G are arranged in stripes. A system controller controls an output of a drive signal generating section for each of an all pixel read mode and a photometry control mode in response to the stroke of a shutter release operation. In the photometry control mode, the image pickup device is supplied with drive signals in response to a horizontal timing signal fed from a timing signal generator and a control signal fed from the system controller. The image pickup device thus reads out only the signal charges representative of the color G in this mode, thereby especially implementing the signal charge reading at a doubled speed.
