ABSTRACT:
In one aspect of the present invention, a method is provided for using a display having a predetermined display resolution to show out of focus areas in an archival image having a greater resolution than the predetermined display resolution. In this method, a verification image sized for presentation on the display, is provided. Portions of the archival image that are out of focus are identified. The verification image is blurred so that portions of the verification image that correspond to out of focus portions of the archival image appear out of focus when the verification image is presented on the display.In another aspect a camera system is provided having a source of an archival image with a predetermined resolution and a verification display having an image display resolution that is lower than the predetermined resolution of the archival image. A signal processor is provided, with said signal processor processing the archival image to identify out of focus portions of the archival image and to form a verification image formatted for presentation on the verification display said signal processor further modifying the appearance of the verification image so that portions of the verification image that correlate to identified portions of the archival image appear out of focus when the modified verification image is presented on the verification display.
