Respective image information data of three colors for forming a color image and a monochrome image information data are obtained from output values of at least three imaging element lines and a computed value based on these output values, whereby the readout speed for monochrome images is made as fast as that in a dedicated apparatus for reading out monochrome images, while using only the imaging element lines used for reading out color images. Three CCD lines 4A, 4B, and 4C are constituted by a (B-reading) CCD line 4A for reading out blue wavelength region, a (monochrome-reading) CCD line 4B for reading out the whole visible wavelength region, and a (R-reading) CCD line 4C for reading out red wavelength region, which yield blue, monochrome, and red outputs, respectively. The arithmetic unit 5 yields a green output.
