Abstract: A method (100) of generating a digital image of a scene is disclosed. The method (100) is particularly advantageous in situations where a light source illuminating the scene is unknown. The method (100) allows post-capture control over flash illuminant and ambient illuminant used in generating the image. The method (100) may also be used to provide a synthetic fill flash effect. The method (100) is particularly advantageous in situations where an ambient light source illuminating the scene differs in spectral character from that of a flash illuminant used to capture an image of the scene.

Abstract: Methods of capturing image pixel data representing a scene are disclosed. The disclosed methods may be practiced using a camera (150) may be implemented as software, such as an application program executing within the camera (150). The methods are particularly advantageous where user modification to the camera control parameters leads to a difference between the values of the pre-capture control parameters for the camera (150) when compared to the pre-capture control parameters that the camera (150) would determine in fully automatic mode. The measured difference may be compared to one or more predetermined threshold values.

Abstract: A method (500) of providing a picture composition guide on a display device (407) of a camera (450) is disclosed. The method (500) operates by firstly detecting (502) settings of the camera (450). Image analysis (503) is then performed on an image being displayed on the display device (407), the image representing a photographic scene. Next, the presence and location of strong features are determined based on the result of the image analysis (503). One or more markers are selected (505) dependent upon the camera settings and the strong features. The one or more markers are then superimposed over the image on the display device (407).
