Abstract
In a video camera apparatus, one of two optical paths obtained by a split optical system is led to a first solid state image pickup device and the other optical path is led to a second solid state image pickup device. The first and second solid state image pickup devices each have a plurality of optoelectric transducing elements as pixels arrayed vertically and horizontally in a plane on which an image is formed by the light passed through an objective. In the second device, an intervel between the two adjacent optoelectric transducing elements is equal to that between the two adjacent optoelectric transducing elements arrayed in the image forming plane of the first device. The optoelectric transducing elements arrayed in the image forming plane of the second device is vertically and horizontally displaced by 1/2 of the pixel pitch from the corresponding optoelectric transducing elements arrayed in the image forming plane of the first device. The first and second devices successively pick up charges generated in the optoelectric transducing elements and output them in the form of image signals.
