1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an image processing apparatus, an image processing method, and a program, in particular, the invention relates to an image processing apparatus, an image processing method, and a program in which it is possible to decide an optimal parameter used when a processing is applied on an image by way of a simple operation with a small storage amount.
2. Description of the Related Art
FIG. 1 is an explanatory diagram for describing an image processing apparatus in a related art;
FIG. 2 is an explanatory diagram for describing an outline of an image processing performed by an image processing apparatus to which an embodiment of the present invention is applied;
FIG. 3 is a block diagram of a configuration example of an image processing system to which an embodiment of the present invention is applied;
First, with reference to FIG. 2, a description will be given of an outline of an image processing carried out by an image processing apparatus to which an embodiment of the present invention is applied.
An image processing apparatus 11 has two modes including a recording mode and a reproduction mode.
The recording mode is a mode in which respective moving images reproduced from a recording media are set as original images, a plurality of processing images obtained by setting mutually different values for a parameter of a processing are presented, and an optimal parameter for a user is decided among the plurality of presented processing images.
