Abstract of the Disclosure A camera includes an imager which forms a signal representative of an image during an integration interval. The integration interval is followed by a pull-down interval during which the integrated signal is transferred out of the photo-responsive region of the imager. A first shutter is provided which periodically prevents light from falling upon the photo-responsive region of the imager during the pull-down interval. A second shutter in combination with the first shutter is controllable for limiting the light passage during the integration interval. With this shutter arrangement, the dynamic resolution of the camera is increased at the expense of image sensitivity. Thus, means are provided for precisely controlling the second shutter such that image sensitivity can be restored when desired.
