Abstract:
1. A method of processing image data in a color filter array, the image data including a magnification chromatic aberration captured by an imaging device, the method comprising: correcting the magnification chromatic aberration by performing a coordinate transformation with respect to each pixel in the image data; and compensating for a defective pixel due to the color filter array with respect to magnification-chromatic-aberration-corrected image data, wherein the correcting includes, setting a pixel value of a pixel of a coordinate transformation destination as that of a pixel value of a pixel of a coordinate transformation source, if a color of the color filter array of the coordinate transformation source is same as that of the coordinate transformation destination, and setting the pixel value of the pixel of the coordinate transformation destination to that of a pixel closest to the coordinate transformation source of the same color, if the color of the color filter array of the coordinate transformation source is different from that of the coordinate transformation destination.
