Abstract: An image processing method of converting spectral image data of a plurality of spectral wavelengths imaged by a spectral camera into a color image by using a processor, wherein the processor acquires a plurality of pieces of the spectral image data from a storage unit, calculates a correction value by multiplying a optical spectrum of each pixel of a corresponding one of the plurality of spectral image data by a correction constant set for each wavelength, calculates a color conversion value by summing the correction values of the same pixel positions, and generates a color composite image based on the color conversion value. Then, the correction constant is set such that a sum spectrum obtained by summing characteristic spectra obtained by multiplying a sensitivity characteristic with respect to each spectral wavelength of the spectral camera by the correction constant corresponding to each wavelength matches a target spectrum of any color filter.
