Abstract:
A color correction system for an imaging apparatus, comprising:at least one of an imaging apparatus for detecting the color of at least one point of an object and an imaging apparatus for outputting image information;conversion means for converting the color information of an input-output signal of said imaging apparatus on the basis of the color conversion characteristic of said imaging apparatus;reference data means for providing reference data, the reference data being common to a plurality of imaging apparatuses;detecting means for detecting at least one value among the color information of an input-output signal of said imaging apparatus, at least one adjustment status set value of said imaging apparatus, and at least one status value indicating at least the variation per year of said color conversion characteristic and the use environment of said imaging apparatus; andcontrol means for controlling the color information of the input-output signal of said imaging apparatus by controlling the color conversion characteristic of said conversion means on the basis of an output signal of said detection means and said reference data provided by said reference data means.
