Abstract: A method of generating an image. The method comprises the steps of: accessing a digital still image comprising a plurality of subjects; applying a subject detection algorithm to the digital still image to detect the plurality of subjects to generate a plurality of subject images, each of the subject images comprising at least one detected subject; and displaying, on a display of the imaging device, at least one portion of the digital still image comprising one of the plurality of subject images.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for processing digital images having eye color defects. In one method for detecting and correcting eye color defects of a subject in a digital image, the steps comprise: (a) processing the digital image to automatically detect one or more candidate positions of eye color defects in the digital image; (b) automatically applying an eye color defect algorithm to the digital image at the detected candidate positions to automatically correct for the eye color defect; (c) displaying, on a display, at least a portion of the digital image comprising at least one of the corrected eye color defects; and (d) displaying, on the display, an indicator located proximate the at least one of the corrected eye color defects indicative of the at least one of the corrected eye color defects.

Abstract: A method for detecting artifacts produced during film scanning in a scanning device, the method includes the steps of (a) providing film having a plurality of frames with an area of substantially constant density; (b) scanning the area of substantially constant density by the scanning device; (c) generating a profile consisting of the average of substantially all pixels at substantially the same location in the area of substantially constant density; and (d) detecting an artifact based on comparing the profile to a first threshold.
