摘要： A suitable image is obtained of a subject in which the difference in luminance between a bright area and a dark area is very large. The dark area is properly exposed and first image data is obtained. The bright area is properly exposed, and second image data is obtained. The first image data pertaining to the bright area is replaced with the second image data, thereby obtaining composite image data. This is accomplished using an array of photodiodes comprising two sets of photodiodes, one set of the photodiodes comprising filters, and the respective sets of photodiodes output signals to respectively different transfer paths for signal processing.

摘要： A system is provided for producing image signals of a photographed subject image by a solid state image sensing device and for producing a brightness signal and line sequential color difference signals from the image signal. The subject image is sensed by the image sensing device which has a color filter formed thereon. First and second horizontal scanning lines of picture elements are alternately arranged and the picture elements are opposed to filter elements of the color filter. The first horizontal scanning lines separately transmit at least red light and green light and the second horizontal scanning lines transmit at least blue light and green light, to thereby obtain color image signals. The image signal thus obtained are signal processed to produce the line sequential color difference signals R-Y and B-Y. With this signal processing, the system can produce the image signals including the line sequential color difference signals by a simplified arrangement without impairing the color productivity.

摘要： The present invention provides a film cartridge which can be looked up easily and a film image input system which can obtain a high quality image by using the film cartridge. The image signal of each frame image, of which the image quality is adjusted, is recorded in the EEPROM of the image record unit to be mounted on the film cartridge, in which the photo film is stored in a roll, so as to correspond to the frame number while the developed photo film is printed. And, the film image input system controls the adding circuit, the multiplying circuit and the gamma correction circuit based on the respective R, G, B color signals, which are respectively outputted to the black level controller, the white level controller and the gradation controller from the EEPROM, and outputs an image signal, which has the same gradation characteristics as that of the image signal which is recorded in the EEPROM, to the encoder. With this arrangement, a high-quality image can be obtained which is equal to a printed photograph on the TV monitor while the frame image is being reproduced.

摘要： In an imaging device having an electronic shutter, a shooting operation is achieved by the use of a CCD sensor, and a pre-shooting operation is conducted which accumulates signal electric charge such that the signal electric charge is discharged through a reverse transfer. In response to the amount of the signal electric charge thus discharged, the amount of exposure is determined (namely, the shutter speed and the iris value). By measuring the amount of the signal electric charge thus discharged for each predetermined range of a light receiving area, a multi-light measurement is achieved. The light receiving area has a plurality of photoelectric converter elements of the MOS capacitor type disposed therein and is subdivided into a plurality of areas which are insulated from each other. The pre-shooting operation is conducted which accumulates signal electric charge in the photoelectric converter elements such that the signal electric charge is discharged to the side of the substrate for each subdivided area. In response to the amount of the signal electric charge thus discharged, the amount of exposure is determined (namely, the shutter speed and the iris value). By measuring the amount of the signal electric charge thus discharged for each subdivided area, the multi-light measurement is achieved.

摘要： After electrode pads 20 formed on a silicon substrate 1 and an electrode 21 to be connected thereto are exposed, a photoelectric conversion layer 12 is formed via a first mask 23 which covers exposed surfaces of the electrode pads 20 and the electrode 21. Then, a second electrode 13 is formed on a third electrode via a second mask 26 in which an opening is formed. This establishes a connection between the second electrode 13 and the electrode pads 20.
