According to the present invention, even if variation (estimation variation) is caused in a subject distance estimated at the time of imaging when restoration processing of a taken image is performed using a restoration filter corresponding to the subject distance, since an optimal restoration filter that conforms to a subject distance taking into account the maximum infinity-side estimation variation and does not cause overcorrection is selected, it is possible to prevent resolution degradation due to overcorrection and achieve the improvement of resolution by the restoration filter.
Abstract:
Source image data is subjected to a logarithmic process (gamma correction process) (S11), and the luminance distribution of source image data is acquired (S12). Then, it is determined whether or not the luminance distribution of source image data corresponds to “a high luminance scene (highlight scene) biased toward a high luminance side” based on a characteristic of a luminance value equal to or greater than a first threshold value in the luminance distribution of source image data (S13). According to the determination result (Y/N of S13), a restoration process based on a point spread function of an optical system is controlled (S14, S15). A restoration filter which is used in the restoration process has a filter coefficient corresponding to image data before the logarithmic process.
