Abstract
An image sensing device for transferring electric charge from a plurality of photoelectric converters disposed therein. The image sensing device is divided into a plurality of pixel areas. At least a pair of the divided pixel areas contiguous to each other have a vertical transfer CCD, an oblique shift CCD and a horizontal transfer CCD to transfer the electric charge from the photoelectric converters to an output stage. The output stage is at least disposed contiguous to the boundary of the divided pixel areas adjacent to each other.
