ABSTRACT:
In reproducing a visible image from a digital image signal representing a color image, the digital image signal being made up of a series of image signal components, an unsharp image signal, which represents an unsharp image of the color image, is formed. The image signal components of the digital image signal and the unsharp image signal, which image signal components represent corresponding picture elements in the color image and the unsharp image, are coupled with one another, and a compressed signal having a compressed dynamic range as compared to the original digital image signal is thereby obtained. Predetermined image processing is carried out on the compressed signal, and a processed image signal is thereby obtained. A visible image is reproduced from the processed image signal.
