Abstract:
1. An image processing apparatus which develops and edits raw image data obtained by an image sensing device having an imaging sensor, comprising: an input device that inputs raw image data; a parameter setting device that sets an image processing parameter; an area size setting device that sets the size of an output area for reproduction/outputting of an image; a magnification setting device that sets a magnification of an the image output to the output area; an extraction area size determining device that determines the size of an extraction area in the raw image data on the basis of the size of the output area set by said area size setting device and the magnification set by said magnification setting device; an image processing device that performs image processing for partial raw image data in the extraction area determined by said extraction area size determining device, on the basis of the parameter set by said parameter setting device; an output device that outputs image data obtained by said image processing device to the output area; and a generating device that generates low-resolution image data by decimating partial image data, at a predetermined decimation ratio, in an extraction area, in a raw image represented by the raw image data, which is determined by said extraction area size determining device.
