Abstract
An image processing apparatus for displaying a live view image obtained by implementing special effect processing on an image data on a monitor comprises an image processing unit that implements a plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data to generate a plurality of sets of special effect image data corresponding respectively to the plurality of types of special effect processing, and a control unit that displays the plurality of sets of special effect image data on the monitor while switching the plurality of sets of special effect image data automatically in time series.
Claims9
An image processing apparatus for displaying a live view image obtained by applying special effect processing on an image data, comprising:
- an image data generation unit that generates an image data;
- a memory unit that stores a plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters to be used for generating a plurality of different sets of special effect image data;
- a special effect processing sequence setting unit that sets a special effect processing sequence to apply a plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data;
- a image processing unit that applies the plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data with the plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters according to the special effect processing sequence to generate the plurality of different sets of special effect image data corresponding respectively to the plurality of types of special effect processing;
- a special effect processing parameters switching unit that switches the plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters to be put into the image processing unit;
- a synthesis coefficient setting unit that sets a synthesis coefficient to be used to synthesize the different special effect image data;
- a synthesis unit that synthesizes the different special effect image data;
- and
- a display unit that displays the synthesized image data.
An image processing method for displaying a live view image obtained by applying special effect processing on an image data, comprising:
- generating an image data;
- storing a plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters to be used for generating a plurality of different sets of special effect image data;
- setting a special effect processing sequence to apply a plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data;
- applying the plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data with the plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters according to the special effect processing sequence to generate the plurality of different sets of special effect image data corresponding respectively to the plurality of types of special effect processing;
- switching the plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters;
- setting a synthesis coefficient to be used to synthesize the different special effect image data;

- setting a special effect processing sequence to apply a plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data;
- applying the plurality of types of special effect processing on the image data with the plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters according to the special effect processing sequence to generate the plurality of different sets of special effect image data corresponding respectively to the plurality of types of special effect processing;
- of switching the plurality of sets of special effect processing parameters;
- setting a synthesis coefficient to be used to synthesize the different special effect image data;
- synthesizing the different special effect image data;
- and
- displaying the synthesized image data.
