A method for obtaining an image having a plurality of exposure regions is described. The method includes exposing first and second regions of an image sensor, reading out first image data from the first region, pausing a clock signal to the image sensor after the reading out of the first image data, resuming the clock signal to the imaging module, and reading out second image data from the image sensor for the second region of the image. A graphics controller and imaging device for capturing images having multiple exposure regions are also described.
