Claim One:
1. An electronic correction method for correcting a plurality of optical anomalies associated with the capture and display of an optical image processed through optical capture and display components having a particular geometry, by compensation of the digital image pixel data associated with the optical image, said method comprising: (a) identifying and representing the optical anomalies associated with the physical and geometrical characteristics of the capture and display optical components as an optical anomaly grid dataset; (b) identifying and representing the ideal behavior of the capture and display optical components as an ideal grid dataset, (c) comparing the optical anomaly grid dataset with the ideal grid dataset and determining an anomaly correcting transformation dataset by performing an inverse spatial transform from the ideal grid dataset to the anomaly transform such that functional composition of the anomaly correcting transformation with the optical anomaly grid dataset reduces to the ideal grid dataset; (d) applying the anomaly correcting transformation dataset to the image pixel data to produce corrected image pixel data which when viewed is free of the optical anomaly.
