Abstract
A CCD is such that a single image sensing area is produced by performing exposure four times in four areas. Four correction circuits are provided in association with respective ones of the four areas. Four items of image data obtained based upon respective ones of the four areas are input to corresponding correction circuits, which apply a correction to prevent image disturbance at the area boundaries. One frame of image data is generated from corrected image data of respective ones of the areas and the image data is recorded on a memory card.
