IMAGE PROCESSING METHOD
First Claim
1. An image processing method comprising the steps of:
- performing prescan for capturing an image on a film at low resolution;
determining image processing conditions using image data obtained by prescan;
performing fine scan for capturing the image on the film at high resolution; and
obtaining output image data by processing fine scanned image data in accordance with said image processing conditions;
wherein the image captured with said prescan is represented on a display and used to select a frame or frames to be subjected to red eye correction, red eye correcting conditions for the thus selected frame or frames are set based on the fine scanned data and said selected frame or frames are subjected to said red eye correction in accordance with said red eye correcting conditions.

Abstract
The image processing method performs prescan for capturing an image of a frame on a film at low resolution, determines image processing conditions using image data obtained by the prescan, represents the image captured with the prescan on a display, selects the frame or frames to be subjected to red eye correction by using the represented image captured with the prescan, performs fine scan for capturing the image on the film at high resolution, obtains output image data by processing fine scanned image data in accordance with the image processing conditions, sets red eye correcting conditions for the thus selected frame or frames by using the fine scanned data, and subjects the fine scanned data of the image of the selected frame to the red eye correction in accordance with the red eye correcting conditions. As a result, the method is capable of effective red eye correction during the making of simultaneous prints so that high-quality images without the red-eye problem can be output in a consistent manner.
