ABSTRACT:
An electronic camera comprises an illumination unit (30) for line-by-line imaging of large-size documents (50) or the like on an elongate solid-state image sensor, in particular a CCD line sensor (22). The illumination unit is provided with optical elements for producing a light strip (37) on the document (50). The illumination unit (30) is arranged within the camera housing (10) for pivotal movement in the direction of the arrows "A" or "B". The CCD line sensor (22) is movable, in response to the pivotal movement of the illumination unit (30), in the vertical direction within the image plane of the camera lens (42) in the direction of the arrows "A" or "B" so that the light strip (37) guided across the document (50) can be imaged on the CCD line sensor (22).
