A read-out apparatus for a solid state imaging device having a plurality of photoelectric converter elements which convert image into photoelectric charges and store the photoelectric charges, respectively. The apparatus includes a shift register for shifting charges, transferred from the photoelectric converter elements, in sequence to output image signals which correspond to the photoelectric converter elements, respectively, a gate for transferring the charge stored in the respective photoelectric converter elements to the shift register each time a transfer signal is applied thereto, and a transfer signal generation unit for generating the transfer signal when an image signal corresponding to a predetermined one of the photoelectric converter elements is outputted so that charges in the shift register transferred from the photoelectric converter elements are partially overlapped with charges transferred in previous transfer operation. <IMAGE> |
