  • Patent number: 10567722
    Abstract: An image processing apparatus can acquire a plurality of pieces of visual point image data having different visual points from an imaging element having a pupil division pixel, and perform a gradation process on an image. When there are a plurality of types of high-brightness-side gradation distributions which can be reflected at a developing time, the image processing apparatus displays a user interface screen on a display unit and displays a histogram representing brightness of an image for each high brightness gradation improvement method. An area in which high brightness gradation is adjustable is displayed on a displayed image to be distinguished for each of the high brightness gradation improvement methods and for each setting condition.

  • Patent number: 9736380
    Abstract: A display control apparatus determines determine whether or not light field information with which an image whose focus state has been changed can be generated is associated with a second image in a second focus state that is different from a first image in a first focus state corresponding to the light field information. If it is determined that the light field information is associated with the second image, the display control apparatus displays a first display item that notifies that the second image is present on a display device together with the first image. In response to receiving an input of an instruction on the first display item, the display control apparatus displays the second image associated with the light field information on the display device.

  • Publication number: 20120262450
    Abstract: An image display apparatus according to the present invention can display an image optimally even if a 3D image and a 2D image are mixed after rotational editing. The image display apparatus displays a 3D image by performing image processing corresponding to rotation information, determines whether rotation information exists, and determines whether an image is rotated from a state of an angle at which stereoscopic display is performed if the rotation information exists. The image display apparatus performs a stereoscopic display on a display area using a plurality of images if the image is not rotated and displays any one of the plurality of images if the image is rotated. When the 3D image is changed into the 2D image by processing for rotating the 3D image, the image display apparatus stores information for returning the 2D image into the original 3D image.
