A line buffer device temporarily stores a predetermined area of original image data which are divided into small blocks, each having a small area, so as to encode the image data for each block into data having a fixed length by a compression processor. The line buffer device is composed of a first-stage line buffer group and a second-stage line buffer group. The number of line buffers in the first-stage line buffer group is smaller by one than the number of lines constituting one block and the number of line buffers in the second-stage line buffer group is the same as the number of lines constituting one block. Encoding processing time is shortened and the circuit structure is simplified.

An image processing device (21) is provided with: a noise suppression processor (23) for creating a noise-reduced image (NRs) by executing spatial filtering on a plurality of pixels, which fall within a reference range that includes a pixel of interest, in an input image (Is); and a distortion correction processor (24) for correcting distortion by local stretching or shrinking by a magnification factor (R) corresponding to the local amount of distortion in the noise-reduced image (NRs). The reference range is dynamically changed in accordance with the magnification factor (R). Control is performed so that the reference range becomes narrower as the magnification factor (R) increases.

As to an image signal of a solid-state image pickup device, an average value calculating unit calculates average values of pixel values of individual color components constituting an image of each frame. A gain calculating unit calculates, for the number of frames in one cycle of flicker generation, maximum values of the average values of the pixel values of the individual color components of the image, which average values are calculated by the average value calculating unit; calculates, according to the maximum values, gains for adjusting to a maximum range the average values of the pixel values of the individual color components constituting other images; and outputs the gains as gains of the individual color components to be supplied to a signal amplifying unit. The signal amplifying unit amplifies all pixels of color components of the image according to the gains of the individual color components supplied.

A process is provided for developing and converting a lookup table (hereinafter called a “LUT”) composed of only characteristic points of the characteristic of a color device and having a volume smaller than that of a multidimensional LUT into a multidimensional LUT by a table development process. Image data converting means uses the multidimensional LUT to convert input image data into output image data. Thus, an effect can be obtained in that a color management apparatus can be operated with only the LUT composed of only characteristic points of the characteristic of the device and having a small volume.
