Abstract

See full text

An image pickup apparatus is provided with: an optical system including a lens or a reflecting mirror; an image pickup device having a light-receiving surface on which light rays from the optical system are focused and a plurality of light-receiving pixels which generate charges on the light-receiving surface by the light rays; a bias voltage generation unit which supplies power to the image pickup device; a signal processing unit which processes a signal output from the image pickup device and outputs the processed signal as image data; and a control unit which inputs into the image pickup device a driving clock that controls transmission of the charges generated in the light-receiving pixels of the image pickup device. The image pickup device is bent so that distortion aberration present in the optical system is eliminated.
