ABSTRACT:
In an image pick-up apparatus having an alternate repetitive configuration of a pixel row having green and magenta pixels alternately and repetitively disposed and a pixel row having cyan and yellow pixels alternately and repetitively disposed, pixel addition is performed for charges accumulated in the green pixel and charges accumulated in the cyan or yellow pixel, and also pixel addition is performed for charges accumulated in the magenta pixel and charges accumulated in the yellow or cyan pixel and generating a signal unit. The roles of the yellow and cyan pixels are exchanged in respective sets of two rows. The solid state image pick-up apparatus having a number of complementary color pixels disposed in a honeycomb configuration is provided which can suppress reduction of a resolution, generation of a false color and reduction of a color S/N ratio even if the sensitivity of the apparatus is increased through pixel addition.
