Abstract

Disclosed is an image sensor in which a redundant member is appropriately provided, and an image capture apparatus using this image sensor. The image sensor has a memory that performs A/D conversion on a read pixel signal and holds this signal. The memory includes a first memory unit for holding a first pixel signal in pixel signals, and a second memory unit for holding a second pixel signal. Larger redundant storage capacity is provided in the first memory than in the second memory.
