What are the basic differences a CCD had vs a CMOS camera image sensors. See the video differences from a CMOS and CCD security camera image sensor. The Video you will be viewing was taken with a Sony webbie CMOS image sensor.

  • It is my understanding in order to eliminate light streaks and blur the camera needs to capture the image at a very high frame rate. We work with security camera transmission. I suggest you go to wikipedia and research Shutter Speed for still pictures and Frame Rate for videos.

  • Your information is horribly incorrect.

    For one a CCD image sensor does NOT capture an image one pixel at a time. It captures it ALL AT ONCE. Hence the term 'global shutter'.

    Amongst other wrong or unmentioned information, I would sorely suggest you either change it or take this video offline.

  • @RET80 instead of removing the video maybe it should be clarified. The speed an image is captured whether it be a global shutter or a rolling shutter happens faster than the blink of an eye. Why would capturing an image one pixel at a time at an extremely high rate of speed be impossible. Each sensor makes a digital copy of what it captures. It sounds as though you are very knowledgeable I would

    love to here your input as to how the senor transfers light to a digital picture.

  • @harrihealey02 That's due to the camera using a rolling shutter instead of a global shutter where the whole frame is captured at once. A rolling shutter captures one line at a time, so what you see is the subject moving between each captured line of pixels. If you google this you'll find much more detailed answers.

  • I have a CMOS digital camera and I am having a few problems with the video...

    Firstly, I notice that when I turn the camera around or when something fast is moving by it looks wobbly and bent. I chose a camera which wouldn't have light streaks when looking at bright objects but i'm not sure whats best for filmng aviation because planes move fast and would look bent but if I have a CCD sensor again the blue streaks wouldn't bother me. How come camcorders CMOS sensor dosent affect the video bad?
