Image processing apparatus and method
First Claim
1. An image processing method of processing an image obtained using an optical system having a wide field angle and a large magnification chromatic aberration, said method comprising the steps of:
- applying magnification chromatic aberration correction processing to the image by storing color components of the image in coordinate conversion memories and performing a coordinate conversion on the color components stored in the coordinate conversion memories, each of the coordinate conversion memories including a memory area having a size that corresponds to a maximum amount of deviation in the color components in comparison to a reference color component caused by the magnification chromatic aberration;
applying separation processing to the image after the step of applying the magnification chromatic aberration correction for separating the image into a brightness signal and a color signal; and
applying a high band emphasis processing only to the brightness signal after the step of applying the separation processing.

Abstract
An image processing method of processing an image obtained by using an optical system having a wide field angle and a large magnification chromatic aberration includes the steps of applying magnification chromatic aberration correction processing to the image, applying separation processing to the image after the step of applying the magnification chromatic aberration correction for separating the image into a brightness signal and a color signal, and applying a high band emphasis processing only to the brightness signal after the step of applying the separation processing.
