An image pickup apparatus includes a plurality of output channels and appropriately operates depending on use situation. The image pickup apparatus includes a system control for determining whether a condition is set on a resolution representing a first speed mode, a resolution representing a second speed mode faster than VGA (Video Graphics Array), or an HDTV (High Definition TeleVision) to generate a control signal depending on the determination result. The control signal controls a drive mode control. Under the control of a timing signal generator responsive to a control signal supplied from the drive mode control, an image sensor and a driver therefor provides image signals captured on two outputs or a single output. The drive mode control controls processing of the image signals in a preprocessor so as to correspond to the number of the output channels of the image sensor.
