Note) Blacked out portions in the diagram indicate pixels which are not read out.
Output starts from the line 7 in high frame rate readout mode.
1. Progressive scan mode
In this mode, all pixel signals are output in non-interlace format in 1/20s.
The vertical resolution is approximately 600TV-lines and all pixel signals within the same exposure period
are read out simultaneously, making this mode suitable for high resolution image capturing.
2. High frame rate readout mode
All effective areas are scanned in approximately 1/60s by reading out one line for every three lines. The
vertical resolution is approximately 200TV-lines.
This readout mode emphasizes processing speed over vertical resolution.
