An image sensor is disclosed which comprises a plurality of image sensor elements arranged in rows and columns. Each of the image sesnor elements includes a a CCD. In order to provide an image sensor which can be used to image in different image formats, the image sensor includes imaging planes on edge surfaces as well as on a top surface. The top and bottom layers of the sensor are of an increased doping level, and these layers serve to guide charge carriers into CCD's located adjacent the edges of the sensor.
