High resolution thin multi-aperture imaging systems

A multi-aperture imaging system comprising:

• a) a first camera subset that provides a first image, the first camera subset having a first field of view (FOV) and first sensor with a first plurality of sensor pixels covered at least in part with a standard CFA;
• b) a second camera subset that provides a second image, the second camera subset having a second, smaller FOV than the first FOV and a second sensor with a second plurality of sensor pixels covered with a standard CFA;
• and
• c) a processor configured to, for a zoom factor input that defines an FOV equal to or smaller than the second FOV, form an output image based on the second image.

A multi-aperture imaging system comprising:

• a) a first camera subset that provides a first image, the first camera subset having a first field of view (FOV1) and a first sensor with a first plurality of sensor pixels covered at least in part with a standard color filter array (CFA);
• b) a second camera subset that provides a second image, the second camera subset having a second field of view (FOV2) such that FOV2<FOV1 and a second sensor with a second plurality of sensor pixels, the second plurality of sensor pixels being either Clear or covered with a standard CFA;
• and
• c) a processor configured to provide an output image from a point of view of either the first or the second camera subset based on a zoom factor (ZF) input that defines a respective field of view (FOVZF).
