    摘要: An imaging apparatus that can shoot a moving image and a still image includes: a CCD 1; an illumination light source 3 for illuminating a subject; and a controlling apparatus 10 for controlling the CCD 1 and the illumination light source 3. The CCD 1 includes: a plurality of photoelectric conversion parts that are arranged in matrix; and a vertical charge transfer part for reading out a charge that is accumulated in each of the photoelectric conversion parts, the controlling apparatus 10 allows the vertical charge transfer part to read out the charge in a state where the illumination light source 3 is ON at a time of shooting the moving image, and when an instruction for shooting the still image is provided, the controlling apparatus turns OFF the illumination light source 3 after completion of light exposure for obtaining the still image, allows the vertical charge transfer part to read out all of the charges by dividing the charges into a plurality of fields while the illumination light source 3 is OFF, and synthesizes the charges that are read out separately by the respective fields so as to generate one still image.

    摘要: A row scanning unit is configured to change a potential of a transfer signal from a second potential V2 to a third potential V3 prior to driving of a transfer operation for causing a transfer of signal charges from a photodiode to a floating diffusion, by supplying a transfer pulse having a first potential V1. The first potential V1 is a positive potential for turning a transfer transistor into ON state, the second potential V2 is a potential for causing pinning of holes under a gate of the transfer transistor and turning the transfer transistor into OFF state, and the third potential V3 is a potential for not causing the pinning of the holes under the gate of the transfer transistor and turning the transfer transistor into OFF state, the third potential being lower than the first potential and higher than the second potential.
