Abstract:
1. An image processing device comprising: a process output image generation means generating one sheet of a process output image by performing a process using plural sheets of captured images sequentially output from a pickup device in consideration of one of the plural sheets of captured images as a reference image; a deterioration correction means correcting image deterioration occurring in the captured images by an optical pickup system including a pickup lens, with respect to the captured images in a front end of the process output image generation means; and a control means capable of controlling whether to perform the correction in the deterioration correction means for every one sheet of the captured images, and controlling to perform the correction with respect to one reference image among the plural sheets of captured images, wherein the deterioration correction is performed by software and corrects for lateral chromatic aberration, and wherein the process output image generation means performs noise reduction in a time direction through addition of the plural sheets of captured images while it compensates for motion between the captured images, and includes an image adding means that performs the addition of the plural sheets of captured images through determination of an adding rate so that the adding rate is lowered in a part in which motion occurs.
