Introduction and Overview
1-2 August 2001
After the exposure, the data from the photosensitive sites on the CCD is
transferred to readout registers for each line, where it is then shifted out and
digitized one pixel at a time. While the data is shifted out, the next set of lines is
exposed.
The film is moved to expose a new line of the image for each set of lines read from
the CCD. This motion is precisely controlled to ensure that the aspect ratio of the
image is not changed and that the colors align correctly when the data is
recombined to correct for the distance between the sensor rows.
