Abstract

Abstract When a picture image recorded by a digital camera is reproduced, a high quality picture image is immediately reproduced without repetitive test prints for enhancing a picture quality or repetitive minor adjustments based on a confirmation via a monitor. Recording is carried out by a digital camera having a function of adding recording information representing a recording condition (a recording information adding unit) to digital image data obtained by the recording. A set-up processing unit in an image reproducing apparatus carries out image processing on the image data obtained by the recording for enhancing a picture quality using the recording information added to the image data, and the image reproducing apparatus reproduces the image data in the form of a print or a display on a monitor.

Claims Analysis

Total Claims: 5
Claim 1
Independent Claim 113 words
An image reproducing method comprising the steps of: obtaining digital image data recorded by a digital camera to which recording information representing a recording condition is added by the digital camera having a function of adding the recording information to the digital image data recorded thereby, storing, in a predetermined storage medium, the digital image data to which the recording information has been added; carrying out image processing for enhancing a picture quality of the digital image data having been stored in the storage medium by using the recording information having been added to the digital image data; and reproducing the digital image data on which the image processing has been carried out.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim 101 words
A image reproducing method as defined in Claim 1 comprising the steps of: storing the digital image data in the storage medium after adding a variety of conditions of the image processing to the digital image data on which the image processing has been carried out; carrying out the image processing on the digital image data which have been stored in the storage medium for enhancing the picture quality of the digital image data using the processing conditions having been added to the digital image data, and reproducing the digital image data on which the image processing has been carried out.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim 61 words
An image reproducing apparatus used for implementing the method as defined in Claim 1, comprising: image processing means for carrying out the image processing for enhancing the picture quality of the digital image data using the recording information added to the digital image data, and reproducing means for reproducing the digital image data having been processed by the image processing means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim 62 words
An image reproducing apparatus used for implementing the method as defined in Claim 2, comprising: image processing means for carrying out the image processing for enhancing the picture quality of the digital image data using the image processing conditions added to the digital image data, and reproducing means for reproducing the digital image data having been processed by the image processing means.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim 30 words
A digital camera used for implementing the method as defined in Claim 1 or 2, comprising recording information adding means for adding the recording information to the digital image data.
