A representative photosensor assembly comprises first through sixth arrays of photosensor elements and first through third arrays of charge shift registers. Each photosensor element in the first array, the third array and the sixth array of photosensor elements exhibit a first size, and each photosensor element in the second array, the fourth array and the sixth array of photosensor elements exhibit a size different than the first size. The first and second arrays of photosensor elements are operative to detect a first color of light, the third and fourth arrays of photosensor elements are operative to detect a second color of light, and the fifth and sixth arrays of photosensor elements are operative to detect a third color of light. The first, second and third arrays of charge shift registers are coupled between the first and second, third and fourth, and fifth and sixth arrays of photosensor elements, respectively. Each of the arrays charge shift registers are operative to receive charges from the arrays of photosensor elements to which they are coupled.
