Abstract
A digital camera and a method produce a desired image from an image captured with the digital camera. The digital camera includes a computer program that, when executed by a controller of the digital camera, implements processing a set of captured images to produce the desired image within the digital camera. The desired image includes selected image portions of the captured images from the set. The desired image is stored in a memory of the digital camera. The method includes processing a set of captured images to produce the desired image with the digital camera. Processing the set includes one or both of image object removal from and addition to an image scene.
