Image processing system

An image processing system comprising:

• a reproducing apparatus for reading out a plurality of image signals recorded on an exchangeable storage medium;
• and
• an image forming apparatus having an image memory for storing said plurality of image signals read out by said reproducing apparatus,
• wherein said reproducing apparatus and said image forming apparatus are separated and process said plurality of image signals by communicating with each other;
• and
• wherein said reproducing apparatus reads out said plurality of image signals recorded on the exchangeable storage medium on the basis of an instruction communicated from said image forming apparatus to the reproducing apparatus and outputs the plurality of reproduced image signals to said image forming apparatus.

An image processing system comprising:

• portable color image pickup means for recording a picked up color image on an exchangeable storage medium and for outputting a reproduced color image signal;
• converting means, which is separated from said portable color image pickup means, for converting the color image signal reproduced by said portable color image pickup means into color image data;
• and
• electrophotographic processing means forming the color image onto a recording sheet in accordance with the color image data;
• wherein said electrophotographic processing means outputs a control signal to said portable color image pickup means for recording the picked up color image on the exchangeable storage medium and outputting the reproduced color signal.
