Abstract: To generate a color image exhibiting few blocked-up colors or little color saturation. It is provided a image processing apparatus for processing an original image that is picked up, comprising: an image input part for inputting N original images having different exposure levels, where N is an integer of two or more, which are obtained by picking up images of the same subject in one of a simultaneous manner and a time-series manner; and a composite processing part for generating M output images, where M is an integer of one or more and less than N, by composing the N original images. The composite processing part compares color component signals in each corresponding pixel position with each other between the N original images, and sets the color component signal that produces a higher chroma as a color component signal in each pixel position of the output image.

Abstract: A technique is provided for reducing the size of each of images included in an image signal and generating a high-resolution image with minimized degradation in the image quality from the reduced images. Alias components and motion information that are included in the image signal having the reduced images are used for conversion of the images included in the image signal into a high-resolution image. Low pass filtering is performed on a frequency component in the direction of a motion included in the image signal and a frequency component in a direction other than the direction of the motion. The cut-off frequency of the low pass filter in the direction other than the direction of the motion is lower than the cut-off frequency of the low pass filter in the direction of the motion.
