Claim One:
1. A method comprising: gathering a first image frame; storing in a memory buffer the first image frame, a first white balance value for the first image frame, and a first exposure value for the first image frame; sensing information from one or more inertial sensors in a camera; gathering a second image frame and gathering one or more intermediate image frames after the gathering of the first image frame and prior to the gathering of the second image frame; using the sensed information from the one or more inertial sensors to determine a distance traversed by the camera from the gathering of the first image frame to the gathering of the second image frame and, in response to the distance exceeding a predetermined threshold, determining a second white balance value and a second exposure value for the second image frame; and determining, estimating, or calculating a smoothed white balance value and a smoothed exposure value for the one or more intermediate image frames; else in response to the distance not exceeding the predetermined threshold, utilizing the first white balance value and the first exposure value for the one or more intermediate image frames.
