Abstract:
1. An apparatus for reading an image recorded on a photographic film, said apparatus comprising: a plurality of Led arrays, each of which comprises a plurality of LED elements and emits light having a wavelength different from wavelengths of light emitted by another one of the LED arrays; an image-reading section to read said image by detecting light which is one of transmitted and reflected by said photographic film, said light being obtained by irradiating lights emitted from said plurality of LED arrays onto said photographic film; a density information detecting section to detect density information corresponding to a base density of said photographic film; and a light-amount adjusting section to independently adjust an amount of each of said lights emitted by said plurality of LED arrays based on said density information, when said image-reading section reads said image.
