ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a method, apparatus and program for processing an image, capable of producing a sharp image. A digital camera1includes an imaging device4formed of a single-plane sensor that provides one color signal for each pixel. A plurality of images are captured at a high shutter speed by the imaging device4and stored in a frame memory22of a signal processor7. The signal processor7detects a positional relationship among the plurality of images stored in the frame memory22and estimates a correct image with three color signals at each pixel, based on the detected positional relationship. The present invention is applicable, for example, to a digital camera.
