ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for performing a color transformation or color retouch operation on multibit digital data defining P color components of image pixels. The apparatus comprises a look-up table (2) which is addressed by N most significant bits (MSBS) of each color component value and which contains coarse versions of output pixel color component values. An interpolator (3) is responsive to M least significant bits (LSBS) of each color component value to interpolate fine versions of the output pixel values from the coarse output pixel values obtained from the look-up table. A processor loads coarse output pixel data for each color component into the 2.sub.NP addresses of the look-up table which may be addressed by the M MSBs of the input pixel data. The processor (8) is adapted to cause the value of N progressively to increase with successive iterations.
