Abstract

Vertical CCD registers constituting parts of an interline type CCD imaging device hold independently the signal charges transferred from photoelectric conversion elements and having different storage durations. Transfer of charge to the vertical CCD registers from the photoelectric conversion element is performed at least twice during one field period. The vertical CCD registers transfer the signal charges of different storage durations independent of one another.
