Abstract:
An image processing method that obtains input image data from a picture optically taken with a taking lens and that performs specified processing schemes on the obtained input image data to obtain output image data suitable for producing an output image, which comprises the steps of:displaying a processed image on a monitor as it is reproduced from processed image data obtained by performing specified processing schemes on the input image data obtained from said picture; designating a portion of said processed image on said monitor to create a designated area in accordance with a state of an aberration in said processed image due to the taking lens; determining a corrective value for correcting said aberration based on an information in the input image data for the designated area; and correcting, based on said corrective value, said aberration on the input image data obtained from said picture and outputting the corrected image data.
