Abstract
A video imaging apparatus changes an area of an imaging element (CCD or MOS type) from which a signal is read out as a TV signal. A normal transfer speed is used to read out the signal from the area as the TV signal and a high transfer speed is used to read out a signal from other area so that smooth movement of an image can be attained. Further, when movement of a video camera occurs, the movement can be judged by observation through a view finder, that is, which partial area of the whole area of the imaging element is produced as the TV signal can be recognized.
