Abstract
The present invention provides an image forming method for outputting photographic prints. The image forming method includes the steps of: generating product images by performing a first image processing and a second image processing on all of images in one lot that are optically photographed; selecting at least one target image from among the images in the one lot; and outputting the product images and an unprocessed image obtained by performing only the first image processing on the target image. When images have been outputted by carrying out high-grade image processing, it becomes possible to make a customer who has ordered the images notice and recognize that the images have been outputted by carrying out the high-grade image processing.
Claims23
An image forming method, comprising the steps of:
- generating product images by performing a first image processing and a second image processing on all of images in one lot that are optically photographed;
- selecting at least one target image from among said images in the one lot;
- and
- outputting said product images and an unprocessed image obtained by performing only said first image processing on said target image.
An image forming apparatus, comprising:
- image acquisinon means for acquiring all of images in one lot that are optically photographed;
- processing means for performing a first image processing that is image processing for image completion and a second image processing that is image processing for image defect correction on the images acquired;
- and
- selection means for selecting at least one target image from among said images in the one lot,
- wherein said processing means generates a product image by performing both of said first image processing and said second image processing and an unprocessed image by performing only said first image processing for the target image, and outputs both of the product image and the unprocessed image.
