Abstract
A camera: a first camera including a first lens and a color image sensor covered with color filters located in front of square pixels; a second camera including a second lens and a mono color image sensor having square pixels, with a pixel arrangement of the mono color image sensor rotated by 45 degrees with respect to a pixel arrangement of the color image sensor; a first interpolation means for interpolating signals outputted from the color image sensor, converting the interpolated signals into color difference signals, and outputting the color difference signals; a second interpolation means for interpolating signals outputted from the mono color image sensor and outputting interpolated luminance signals; a first cropping means for cropping the color difference signals; a second cropping means for cropping the interpolated luminance signals; and a color image signal processing means for fusing the cropped color difference signals and the cropped luminance signals.
