(common image quality adjustment)
Electrofax can use a plurality of image quality adjustment algorithm respectively.The image quality adjustment algorithm for example is following four kinds and is stored in the image quality adjustment information zone that is provided with in the above-mentioned memory 20.
(1) standard
(2) neutrality
(3) bright-coloured
(4) black and white
" standard " is the image quality adjustment algorithm that is processed as the image of standard." neutrality " is to pay attention to the natural tone of material and the image quality adjustment algorithm of processing." bright-coloured " is the image quality adjustment algorithm that is processed as bright-coloured image.Particularly, improve colourity and redness, green processing are got bright-coloured the time, improve contrast, obtain the high image of acutance." black and white " is the image quality adjustment algorithm that is processed as black and white image.Image processing circuit 13 uses the image quality adjustment algorithm of setting (selection) in the menu operation picture, carries out the image quality adjustment of photographic images is handled.
The group of the variable a plurality of parameters in image quality adjustment is handled, used of each image quality adjustment algorithm (below be called population of parameters).Population of parameters for example comprises: be used for the intensity of adjustment " profile enhancings " parameter, be used for the intensity of adjustment " contrast " parameter, be used for adjustment " brightness " parameter, be used for the parameter of adjustment " colourity (color depth) " and be used for adjusting the parameter of " tone (form and aspect) ".
Image processing circuit 13 when not carrying out the variation of parameter operation uses each image quality adjustment algorithm preset parameters crowd (default value), carries out the image quality adjustment of photographic images is handled.The canonical parameter that for example following 4 kinds of canonical parameter crowds are provided with in above-mentioned memory 20 is set up related with corresponding image quality adjustment algorithm in the zone and is stored.
(1) SD uses default value
(2) NL uses default value
(3) VI uses default value
(4) MC uses default value
Image processing circuit 13 when having carried out the parameter modification operation uses population of parameters after changing to carry out the image quality adjustment of photographic images is handled.The change parameter that above-mentioned memory 20 in, is provided with of population of parameters of change with the zone in, also store with corresponding image quality adjustment algorithm foundation is related.In the example of Fig. 4, be stored in change parameter with the zone from the population of parameters (change value) of the population of parameters (VI uses default value) of standard change.
(appending of image quality adjustment algorithm)
Electrofax constitutes and can append the image quality adjustment algorithm.Four reservation zones in the image quality adjustment information zone that in above-mentioned memory 20, is provided with, have been guaranteed in the zone of the image quality adjustment algorithm of appending as storage.When appending the image quality adjustment algorithm, this image quality adjustment algorithm of storage in above-mentioned reservation zone.And, the canonical parameter that the canonical parameter crowd's (default value) who uses in this image quality adjustment algorithm is provided with in above-mentioned memory 20 with the zone in, set up related with the image quality adjustment algorithm of appending and store.
Electrofax when having appended the image quality adjustment algorithm can use four kinds of image quality adjustment algorithm using in the common image quality adjustment and the image quality adjustment algorithm of appending respectively.In addition; When the image quality adjustment algorithm that use is appended; Use population of parameters after changing when when not carrying out the variation of parameter operation, using canonical parameter crowd (default value) and carrying out the parameter modification operation, these 2 identical with four kinds of image quality adjustment algorithm using in common image quality adjustment.
(preservation of population of parameters after changing)
The population of parameters ground that Electrofax can be preserved after changing constitutes.Preserve the zone of data as storage, in above-mentioned memory 20, with canonical parameter with zone, change parameter with the zone, and image quality adjust ID with regional as self-defined usefulness (C-1~C-8) guarantee for example.Self defined area can be separately positioned in the memory 20 and reach in the recording medium 27.
For example, the population of parameters that changes with the canonical parameter crowd who uses the image quality adjustment algorithm (default value) from VI with handle is saved in as the situation of " C-3 " of self defined area and explains as example.After changing population of parameters (change value), the VI that promptly stores in the zone in change value that the change parameter of the VI that VI uses in the image quality adjustment information is stored in the zone and canonical parameter are used default value; Store canonical parameter into the zone as the default value of " C-3 ", store the ID (being VI in this example) of the image quality adjustment algorithm in the self-defined source of expression into image quality adjustment ID with the zone.That is, the image quality of " C-3 " adjustment ID is with storing id information " VI " in the zone, the population of parameters (self-defined C-3 based on VI use default value) of the canonical parameter of " C-3 " when storing VI with the login used in the image quality adjustment algorithm in the zone.In addition, in the parameter modification of the self-defined setting of logining when operation,, the population of parameters of change stores the change parameter of self-defined setting of this change into in the zone.
Four kinds of image quality adjustment algorithm that Electrofax when having preserved population of parameters after changing in the self defined area uses and the image quality adjustment algorithm of appending, also can use the population of parameters of preservation in using common image quality adjustment.When using the population of parameters of preserving, the image quality adjustment algorithm of using this population of parameters is the image quality adjustment algorithm of being represented by image quality adjustment ID.
Flow process to the image quality adjustment of above explanation is set is explained with reference to the menu screen of example after Fig. 5.CPU18 receive menu button (MENU) 201 (Fig. 2) press down operation signal the time, the shooting menu screen of Fig. 5 example is presented on the LCD monitor 21.
(image control)
When CPU18 receives the operation signal of last direction or lower direction of multifinder 205, make cursor to moving up and down according to operation signal.CPU18 be positioned at cursor (Fig. 6) under the state of " image control " receive executive button (OK) 204 press down operation signal the time, the catalogue picture of Fig. 7 example is presented on the LCD monitor 21.
