The invention relates to an imaging apparatus, 19, that may be used in an image acquisition system, 1, (such as a scanning or light sheet microscope) that scans an object, S, with an illumination light, 3. The imaging apparatus comprises a light receiving section, 19a, (such as a CMOS image sensor array) made up of a plurality of pixel rows (Figure 3, 19d), in which signal readout from the pixel rows is accomplished using a rolling (or continuous) readout method by means of an image control section, 19b, which controls a signal readout period in each of the plurality of pixel rows. The signal readout period is variably adjustable and is set so as to correspond to an exposure region of the light receiving section (Figures 7 and 8, R2), the exposure region including at least one simultaneously exposed pixel row. |
