Abstract
A photoelectric conversion apparatus comprises a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements arranged two-dimensionally on a substrate wherein the X-ray or light incidence side of some proper one or ones of the photoelectric conversion elements S13 is covered with a shielding member whose transmittance to an X-ray or light is equal to zero or substantially zero so that the photoelectric conversion elements covered with the shielding member act as correction photoelectric conversion elements thereby achieving an improvement in production yield, a reduction in cost, and a reduction in the time required to read the correction output signals, and also high performance capable of obtaining a moving picture.
