Disclosed is an image sensor, comprising: at least one photosensitive unit, where the photosensitive unit includes a main photosensitive region and an auxiliary photosensitive region arranged at the periphery of the main photosensitive region, and a photosensitive component content of the main photosensitive region is different from a photosensitive component content of the auxiliary photosensitive region. The disclosure enlarges a wavelength range of sensible light of each the photosensitive unit by arranging the auxiliary photosensitive region at the periphery of the main photosensitive region of the photosensitive unit, where the photosensitive component content of the main photosensitive region is different from that of the auxiliary photosensitive region. Thereby more image details may be recorded to generate images with high dynamic range, which enables people to experience a visual effect close to a real environment.
