ABSTRACT:
A signal processing circuit of a solid-state imaging device has an image pickup section formed by plural solid-state image sensors including a discrete pixel array. The solid state image sensor for green-color image pickup is arrayed in the image pickup section with a spatial shift equal to one half the pixel pitch from the solid-state image sensors for red-color image pickup and the solid-state image sensors for blue-color image pickup in accordance with the spatial pixel shifting method. An optical low-pass filter having a cut-off frequency equal to fs is provided on the front surfaces of these solid-state image sensors. The green-color image pickup output signal, the red-color image pickup output signal and the blue-color image pickup output signal, produced at the solid state image sensors of the image pickup section, are subjected to A/D conversion, followed by phase processing with the sampling phases of the respective digital signals matched with one another, to produce high-quality image output signals having satisfactory modulation transfer function (MTF) characteristics and containing lesser amounts of aliasing components.
