Claim One:
1. An image file generation apparatus comprising: an image data generation module that generates image data; a first image processing control data storage module that stores first image processing control data, wherein the first image processing control data is preset, unable to be edited by a user, and configurable in accordance with a shooting mode of the image data; a second image processing control data storage module that stores second image processing control data, wherein the second image processing control data is configurable by the user; an image processing control data acquisition module that acquires the first image processing control data from the first image processing control data storage module, and the second image processing control data from the second image processing control data storage module; an integrating module that integrates the acquired first and second image processing control data into image processing control data; and an image file generation module that generates an image file including the image data and the integrated image processing control data, wherein the integrated image processing control data in the image file specifies image processing which is to be performed on the image data when reproducing, and wherein the integrating module includes: a first adapting module that, when parameters of the acquired first and second image processing control data indicate a same value, adapts the same value for the image processing control data; and a second adapting module that, when parameters of the acquired first and second image processing control data indicate different values, adapts one value other than a default value for the image processing control data.
