A method includes producing two or more measurements by an image sensor having a pixel array, the measurements including information contained in a set of sign-bits, the producing of each measurement including (i) forming an image signal on the pixel array; and (ii) comparing accumulated pixel currents output from pixels of the pixel array in accordance with the image signal and a set of pixel sampling patterns to produce the set of sign-bits of the measurement; buffering at least one of the measurements to form a buffered measurement; comparing information of the buffered measurement to information of the measurements to produce a differential measurement; and combining the differential measurement with information of the set of pixel sampling patterns to produce at least a portion of one or more digital images relating to one or more of the image signals formed on the pixel array.
