ABSTRACT:
In a method of controlling an image sensing device which can be operated in two different modes, namely a field mode and a frame mode, in a frame mode, a potential of a substrate of the image sensing device and an intermediate voltage of pulses to be applied to a vertical transfer unit are set to potentials which are lower than those in the field mode, first. Then, by changing the potential of the substrate and the intermediate voltage to the same potentials as in the field mode during reading out the first field of the image sensing device, a dynamic range which is as wide as that in the field mode and a charge transfer efficiency which is as well as that achieved in the field mode are realized.
