Fig. 4 and Fig. 5 are the flow charts that shows the treatment step of blood-shot eye illness image correction processing.
Desired image file is read out from storage card 11, is temporarily stored in the RAM23 of digital camera.Be read out in the header record zone of the image file of correction protection from be stored in RAM23, confirm to revise protection and whether be opened (forbidding seeing red image correction).After the correction protection is opened (step 31, YES), owing to be considered to be skipped so blood-shot eye illness image correction is thereafter handled to not needing to see red image correction by the image that is stored in the pictorial data representation in this image file.Revise protection and be closed back (step 31; NO); confirming whether to have set the replace mode of using the image file covering that obtains by the blood-shot eye illness image correction processing of carrying out to carry out the image file before this blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled (is presented at various setting menus in the display frame of display unit 15; use this various setting menus; preestablished this pattern); perhaps, confirm whether to have set the new preservation mode (step 32) of the view data of the image after the processing of record expression blood-shot eye illness image correction in the dummy section of storage card.But, even in the time that new preservation mode can not be set,, can think that also new preservation mode is set along with replace mode is not set.
When having set new preservation mode, (step 32), if storage card 11 does not have enough vacant capacity, the image file after just can not handling the blood-shot eye illness image correction is recorded in the storage card 11.Therefore, confirm in storage card, whether to have the vacant capacity (step 33) that is enough to write down the image file after the blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled.(whether step 33 NO), is confirmed to be changed into replace mode (step 34) in order to write down the image file after the blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled in storage card 11 when the vacant capacity that is not enough to write down.Certainly, because vacant capacity is few in storage card 11, so the image file after can not handling the blood-shot eye illness image correction is recorded in the storage card 11, much less, the indication of changing into replace mode is displayed in the display frame of display unit 15.By watching this demonstration, the user just is made as replace mode to digital camera if desired.(step 34 NO), because the image file after can not handling the blood-shot eye illness image correction is recorded in the storage card 11, is skipped so the blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled when not changing into replace mode.
When set use by after the blood-shot eye illness image correction of carrying out handle the image file that obtains and cover and carry out the replace mode ( step 32 or 34 that this blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled preceding image file, YES) time, perhaps, when the vacant capacity (step 33 that is enough to write down the image after the blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled is arranged in storage card 11, YES) time, the photographing information that is recorded in the heading message of the image file that is stored in RAM23 is read.According to the photographing information that is read, judge whether the view data that is stored in this image file is see red the view data (step 35) that image correction is handled.For example, when photoflash lamp is opened, and subject brightness is when low, is judged as to see red image correction and handle.When even photoflash lamp is opened, but subject brightness is when high, is judged as not carry out seeing red image correction and handle.Be stored in the subject brightness in the photographing information, if the BV value is stored, just can use this BV value, also can calculate aperture (AV value), shutter speed (TV value), iso sensitivity (exposure EV values=AV value+TV value=BV value+SV value) such as (SV values).Be judged as do not carry out seeing red image correction handle (step 35, NO) after, blood-shot eye illness image correction is thereafter handled and is skipped.
See red image correction and handle (step 35 being judged as, YES) after, be recorded in blood-shot eye illness in the header record zone of image file and detect the version that the version of handling (detect and handle title) and blood-shot eye illness image correction are handled (correcting process title), detect the version (being stored among the ROM22) of version of handling and the blood-shot eye illness image correction processing of in blood-shot eye illness image correction treatment circuit 9, carrying out with detect the blood-shot eye illness of carrying out in the treatment circuit 8 the blood-shot eye illness of digital camera, compare.
If compare with the version in being stored in image file, the version that is stored among the ROM22 of digital camera is lower, can think carried out than the blood-shot eye illness image correction that in digital camera, can carry out handle the blood-shot eye illness image correction of upgrading handle (step 36, YES).Owing to can think in digital camera, can not carry out and handle better blood-shot eye illness image correction processing, be skipped so the blood-shot eye illness image correction in digital camera is handled than the blood-shot eye illness image correction of having carried out.If compare with the version in being stored in image file, be stored in version among the ROM22 of digital camera higher (even the blood-shot eye illness image detection is handled or any one version of blood-shot eye illness image correction in handling higher), can think in digital camera, can carry out than the blood-shot eye illness image correction of having carried out handle the blood-shot eye illness image correction of upgrading handle (step, NO).Owing to can think in digital camera, can carry out and handle the better blood-shot eye illness image correction processing of upgrading, so the blood-shot eye illness image correction that is converted in digital camera is handled than the blood-shot eye illness image correction of having carried out.
At first, the view data that is stored in the image file is endowed blood-shot eye illness image detection treatment circuit 8, and the blood-shot eye illness image detection of upgrading is handled (step 37).Sample image that can be by being envisioned for the blood-shot eye illness image and the matching treatment of the image of blood-shot eye illness image correction process object etc. see red image detection to handle, and much less also can carry out any detection and handle.
In blood-shot eye illness image detection treatment circuit 8 the blood-shot eye illness image detected after, view data is endowed blood-shot eye illness image correction treatment circuit 9, to detected blood-shot eye illness image, carries out more up-to-date blood-shot eye illness image correction and handles (step 38).Though by the part of detected blood-shot eye illness image is carried out color revisal, brightness revisal etc., can realize seeing red image correction and handle, also can carry out any correcting process.
Handle the view data that obtains by the blood-shot eye illness image correction and be endowed memory 7, be temporarily stored.View data after handling by the blood-shot eye illness image correction is read from memory 7, is endowed display unit 15, and the image that the blood-shot eye illness image is corrected is displayed in the display frame of display unit 15 (step 39).The view data that is stored in the memory 7 is read out, and is used to cover the Imagery Data Recording zone of the image file that is stored among the RAM23.
See the image that is shown, if the image that the dissatisfied blood-shot eye illness of user image is corrected, by the user press cancel button (step 40, NO).Although the view data of the image that expression blood-shot eye illness image is corrected does not make the user satisfied,, situation about being recorded in again in the storage card has been avoided.The view data that has been recorded in the storage card is preserved by former state.When the Imagery Data Recording of the image that expression blood-shot eye illness image is corrected during at storage card, by the user press OK button (input recording instruction) (step 40, YES).
After the user thinks that not needing more to see red image correction handles, revise protection from operator 13, be transfused to (step 41, YES).The correction that is transfused to protection is endowed the image file that is stored among the RAM23, the correction protection in the header record zone of this image file be opened (step 42).In addition, much less, the version of the detection treatment circuit 8 of digital camera and the version of correcting process circuit 9 also are recorded in the detection of image file respectively and are handled in title and the correcting process title.
The new image file that has write down the view data of carrying out the processing of blood-shot eye illness image correction is read out from RAM23, is recorded in the storage card 11 (step 43).If replace mode is set, then new image file will cover the zone of having write down the image file that is read out, if replace mode is not set, much less will be recorded in the dummy section of storage card 11.
In the above-described embodiment, an example as image processing, proposed the blood-shot eye illness image correction and handled, much less, also can be suitable for facial detect handle, at the automatic tone correcting processing of detected face-image etc. other the detection processing and the image processing of revisal processing etc.In addition, in the above-described embodiments, detect processing and correcting process, also these processing can be treated as the processing that concentrates in together as dividing other processing to be treated.And, also can close the state that protection is opened of revising by operator 13.
And, in the above-described embodiments, though in digital camera, whether the view data that is recorded in the storage card 11 being seen red image detection processing and the processing of blood-shot eye illness image correction, utilize version to make judgement, but, if whether can understand can compare in digital camera is recorded in that blood-shot eye illness image detection that the view data in the storage card 11 carries out is handled and the blood-shot eye illness image correction handles that the blood-shot eye illness image detection of upgrading is handled and the blood-shot eye illness image correction is handled, that's all.As the substitute of version, for example, also can utilize the update date of the blood-shot eye illness image detection treatment circuit 8 and the operation sequence of blood-shot eye illness image correction treatment circuit 9 etc.
