摘要:
A camera takes two photographs for a single actuation of its shutter release. One of the photographs uses the camera settings specified by the user, and the other photograph uses camera settings automatically selected by the camera. The taking of the second photograph may optionally be disabled by the camera user. The taking of the second photograph may optionally occur only if the user-specified settings differ, or differ significantly from the automatically-determined settings. The camera may optionally be a digital camera.

摘要:
A system and method for assisting in tone composition that comprises receiving light information corresponding to light detected by a plurality of pixels, analyzing the light information to determine a light value for each of the plurality of pixels, determining contour information, the contour information corresponding to a plurality of groups of adjacent pixels, wherein each group of adjacent pixels is characterized by a unique predetermined range of light values, and communicating the contour information to a display.
摘要:
A system and method for displaying image composition templates with preview images is described. One embodiment comprises analyzing at least one characteristic of a preview image, determining a nature of the preview image based upon the analyzed characteristic, selecting an image composition template corresponding to the determined nature of the preview image and displaying the selected image composition template concurrently with the preview image.
摘要:
A digital imaging device detects or tracks a user's direction of gaze. The detected direction of gaze may be used to set one or more functions in the digital imaging device, and the history of the user's direction of gaze may be stored with a captured digital image for later use by an automatic image post-processing apparatus.
