That is, CPtJ14 calculates g/b, g/r,
Predetermined white balance adjustment data G/B and G/R are output from this data. Depending on this output, the gains of the variable gain amplifiers AI and A2 inserted into the R and B signal input lines of the color reproduction correction circuit 5 are adjusted. Therefore, the R', G, and B' flaw signal gains input to the color reproduction correction circuit 5 are approximately equal to each other. In this way, the ratios of the R, G, and B signals are controlled to be equal for the near-white portion. If there is no near-white part on the screen, press G,
The /B and G/R signals have preset levels, and the variable gain amplifiers AI and A2 also have preset gains.

Furthermore, when the values of Nr and Nb are greater than predetermined values and the value of Ng is less than or equal to a predetermined value, it is determined that there are many yellow parts in the screen. As described above, when there are many specific colors in the screen, there is a problem that the WB is shifted due to the influence of the specific colors, and the skin of the person becomes unnatural.

Therefore, if the area of the skin-colored portion is equal to or larger than a predetermined value based on the count value Nf of the skin-colored portion, it is determined that the skin-colored portion is affected, and the skin-colored portion is corrected. That is, the high chroma portion is corrected to make it more vivid, and the skin color portion affected by the high chroma portion is corrected so as to cancel out the effect of the high chroma portion.

Now, let's say that there are many green parts such as leaves on the screen, and the person looks green due to this, and the chromaticity point of green is Gr.
Suppose it was. The figure shows that this is converted to a more vivid green chromaticity point Gr'. On the other hand, the chromaticity point Fa of skin color is converted to the chromaticity point Fa' which looks preferable.

FIG. 4 is an example of color reproduction when the same situation is photographed using the conventional TTLWB method. The TTLWB method includes a full-screen average method and a white part extraction method. In this case, since the entire screen is greenish due to the reflected light from the leaves, either method will dilute the green color of the entire screen, that is, move the chromaticity point in the direction of the arrow. Note that in the white part extraction method, if there is no white part, WB correction is stopped, but in that case, the screen remains greenish. If the green color of the entire screen is diluted, skin tones will become closer to natural, but even the green of the leaves will become lighter and the vividness will not be reproduced.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, color reproduction is corrected based on the area ratio of the skin-colored area and the high chroma area, so that problems that conventionally occur, such as background colors and clothing, are corrected. It can eliminate the phenomenon where a person's skin color looks unnatural due to the influence of reflected light around the person, and the background color and clothing color can be made brighter.
Yes, it is possible to beautifully reproduce a person's skin.
