An image capture device including an image sensor for capturing a color image, the image sensor comprising: a) a two-dimensional array having first and second groups of pixels wherein pixels from the first group of pixels have narrower spectral photoresponses than pixels from the second group of pixels and wherein the first group of pixels has individual pixels that have spectral photoresponses that correspond to a set of at least two colors; and b) the placement of the first and second groups of pixels defining a pattern that has a minimal repeating unit including at least twelve pixels, the minimal repeating unit having four non-overlapping cells which make up the minimal repeating unit, each cell being a contiguous subarray of pixels having fewer pixels than the minimum repeating unit, wherein each cell respectively has at least two pixels representing a specific color selected from the first group of pixels and a plurality of pixels selected from the second group of pixels arranged to permit the reproduction of a captured color image under different lighting conditions, wherein the four cells which make up the minimal repeating unit include two green cells each having at least two green pixels, one red cell having at least two red pixels, and one blue cell having at least two blue pixels; wherein the image capture device is configured to combine, respectively, the at least two pixels representing a specific color within each cell to produce a low resolution color filter array image, wherein the low resolution color filter array image has pixel values that are associated with the cells; wherein the low resolution color filter array image exhibits a repeating Bayer pattern for color filters: G R B G wherein G represents a combination of the green pixels in a green cell, R represents a combination of the red pixels in a red cell, and B represents a combination of the blue pixels in a blue cell; wherein the second group of pixels define a high resolution panchromatic image, wherein the high resolution panchromatic image has pixel values that are associated with pixels in the image sensor; wherein the image capture device is configured to combine the low resolution color filter array image and the high resolution panchromatic image to produce a high resolution color image. a) a two-dimensional array having first and second groups of pixels wherein pixels from the first group of pixels have narrower spectral photoresponses than pixels from the second group of pixels and wherein the first group of pixels has individual pixels that have spectral photoresponses that correspond to a set of at least two colors; and b) the placement of the first and second groups of pixels defining a pattern that has a minimal repeating unit including at least twelve pixels, the minimal repeating unit having four non-overlapping cells which make up the minimal repeating unit, each cell being a contiguous subarray of pixels having fewer pixels than the minimum repeating unit, wherein each cell respectively has at least two pixels representing a specific color selected from the first group of pixels and a plurality of pixels selected from the second group of pixels arranged to permit the reproduction of a captured color image under different lighting conditions, wherein the four cells which make up the minimal repeating unit include two green cells each having at least two green pixels, one red cell having at least two red pixels, and one blue cell having at least two blue pixels;
