Description of the invention 5) Field of invention and background A. Field of invention The present invention is a digital camera, especially a digital camera with light source setting and color correction functions . B. Background of the Invention As digital cameras become more and more popular, users are becoming more demanding about the color of their images. The difference between the color expression of general digital images and the actual situation is easy to distinguish. Therefore, the quality of digital cameras also often depends on how to make the generated digital images approximate the true image colors. In order to reproduce the colors, the best combination of spectral characteristics can be selected for the Charge Coupled Device. Basically, the closer the spectral characteristics of the CCD are to the display to be displayed, the better the color reproduction can be achieved. And the digital camera has a characteristic, that is, the digital signal generated by the CCD has a function with the spectral characteristics of the light source of the scene. For example, 'if the digital camera's spectral characteristics are only applicable to the light source in the sun', the color effect produced by using a flash or fluorescent lamp will not be ideal. This is because the light sensing of the CCD is a function of the spectral power distribution of the reflected light from the light source and the scene. In order to improve the color performance of digital cameras, the processing method of the conventional technology is to set a pre-processing module on the digital camera end and use a color correction matrix to adjust the environmental parameters according to different light sources. Generally, these environmental specifications are in accordance with Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specifications (210 X 297 meals) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) Bookbinding. 558670 Employees of Intellectual Property Bureau, Ministry of Economic Affairs Printed by the Consumer Cooperative A7 B7 5. The description of the invention () The number is obtained by analyzing the data of the image through color matching functions. Some use a color temperature detection circuit to generate red, green, and blue color environment parameters, and then adjust the color environment parameters in the color correction matrix. The color temperature can be changed due to the color loop parameters in the color correction matrix. Therefore, by using the color environment parameters in the color correction matrix, the image can be optimally compensated 'so that the generated digital image data approximates the actual color. The conventional method is to set the output format of the color according to the ICC profile (International Color Consortium Profile Format Specification) at the back end of the digital camera, and record the conversion characteristics of the color of the specific light source. Accordingly, it is necessary to establish RGB input profiles of red, green, and blue colors to correct color deviations during input. During output, the signal must be converted into a format acceptable to the display. Therefore, in actual application, it is very complicated and the cost is high. 5 — 2 Objects and Summary of the Invention Based on the above problems, the main object of the present invention is to propose a digital camera with a light source setting function, so as to avoid the complicated calculation of image data by setting environmental parameters of color in advance, so it can be easily achieved. To achieve, that is, to save costs. Another object of the present invention is to provide a digital camera with a color correction function.

Description of the invention () (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) There is one Image correction module 1 1. There is a light source selection device 1 01 in the image pre-processing module 10, which has many types of light sources for users to set according to the situation when shooting, such as sunny, cloudy Daylight, indoor daylight bulbs, mineral silk bulbs, etc. After setting, the light source selection device 101 outputs a light source setting signal to an environmental parameter setting device 102 'to query an environmental parameter query table 41, and obtain the red, The green and blue gain values are then transmitted to the image color processing device 104 for the red, green and blue gain values of the light source setting signal. At the same time, the image reading device 103 ', such as a CCD (Charge Coupled Device) or CMOS sensor, captures the scene image and sends it to the image color processing device 104. The image color processing device 104 sets the red, green, and blue gain values of the signal according to the light source, and performs color adjustment processing on the received scene image according to the image processing function. After processing, the image is transferred to a memory device 105.

Therefore, when the user finds that the selected light source is set incorrectly on the computer screen At this time, the type of the reference light can be reselected on the interface of the display device 110. The type of light source provided by the interface on the display device 110 is the same as the type provided by the light source selection device 101 on the digital camera side. Thus, the display device 110 transmits the light source correction signal to a light source image correction device 109.
