Abstract
An image sensing apparatus is provided with an image sensor; an electronic monitor having a number of scanning lines fewer than the vertical picture elements of the image sensor; and a driving circuit driving the image sensor with a fewer number of scanning lines when the apparatus is in a monitor mode than in an image sensing mode. The driving circuit is arranged to drive the image sensor in a non-interlacing manner in the monitor mode.
