Abstract:
1. An image processing circuit comprising: first through third matrix acquiring circuits for acquiring a basic matrix of two pixels by two pixels adjacent to each other on a solid-state image pick-up device from an output signal of the solid-state image pick-up device; a first averaging circuit for calculating an average value of the basic matrix obtained in the first matrix acquiring circuit; a second averaging circuit for calculating an average value of the basic matrix obtained in the second matrix acquiring circuit; a third averaging circuit for calculating an average value of the basic matrix obtained in the third matrix acquiring circuit; and a data array conversion circuit for converting the outputs of the first through third averaging circuits into a bayer array conversion matrix of two pixels by two pixels adjacent to each other on the solid-state image pick-up device; characterized in that: when the solid-state image pick-up device is an RGB independent array sensor-type solid-state image pick-up device for acquiring an R signal, a G signal, a B signal for each pixel, the R signal, G signal, B signal are inputted into the first through third matrix acquiring circuits, respectively.
