Abstract
Disclosed herein is a video conversion device including a color characteristic memory, a color characteristic correction processor, a selector, and a controller.
Claims9
A video conversion device comprising:
- a color characteristic memory configured to store color characteristics of a plurality of kinds of cinema films, color characteristics relating to a plurality of kinds of development processes in development of the cinema film, and color characteristics relating to adjustment of a film printer;
- a color characteristic correction processor configured to carry out, for an input video signal, correction with use of a color characteristic that is stored in the color characteristic memory and relates to a kind of cinema film, a color characteristic that is stored in the color characteristic memory and relates to a development process, and a color characteristic in printing of the cinema film, the color characteristic correction processor outputting a corrected video signal;
- a selector configured to allow, based on operation with a predetermined operation screen, selection of a negative film, selection of a film for intermediate processing for acquisition of a film for screening from the selected negative film, selection of the film for screening, selection of development processes for the selected films, and selection of a color characteristic of the film printer;
- and
- a controller configured to read out color characteristics that are stored in the color characteristic memory and each correspond to a respective one of selected items based on selection by the selector, and cause the color characteristic correction processor to carry out correction with all of the read color characteristics.
