A system and method for establishing an aggregate degree of brightness for each primary color to create a composite color digital image. One of a plurality of primary colors is selected. A color digital image is captured with a color digital camera. The aggregate degree of brightness for the selected primary color is determined. The determined aggregate degree of brightness for the selected primary color is compared with the desired degree of brightness for the selected primary color. If the determined aggregate degree of brightness is not within a tolerance band surrounding the desired degree of brightness, then an adjustment is made to an exposure time controller of the color digital camera. This process is repeated until the determined aggregate degree of brightness is within the tolerance band surrounding the desired degree of brightness. If the determined aggregate degree of brightness is within the tolerance band surrounding the desired degree of brightness, then photosite values for the selected primary color are copied into corresponding pixels in a buffer. The process is repeated for each remaining primary color.
A method for creating a composite color digital image wherein, for each primary color, an aggregate degree of brightness can be set within a tolerance band surrounding a desired aggregate degree of brightness, comprising:
A system for creating a composite color digital image using a color digital camera, comprising:
