Claim 8:
9. An image sensor, comprising:
a plurality of unit pixels, each of the plurality of unit pixels including
a photodiode;
a transfer transistor connected to the photodiode;
a reset transistor connected to the transfer transistor;
at least two source follower transistors connected to the reset transistor; and
at least one selection transistor connected to the at least two source follower transistors,

wherein the at least two source follower transistors are connected between the reset transistor and the at least one selection transistor in parallel such that
the image sensor is configured to cause a voltage to be applied to the at least one selection transistor through each of the at least two source follower transistors in parallel.
