<p>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image processing apparatus which suppresses saturation reduction or color spots caused by color difference smoothing while widening a reference range of the color difference smoothing.SOLUTION: An image processing apparatus 100 comprises: a first color difference generation part for generating a first color difference included in first color pixels by performing smoothing in a first range; a second color difference generation part for generating a second color difference included in the first color pixels on the basis of a second color component included in second color pixels positioned within a second range smaller than the first range; a color difference smoothing control part 1040 for generating the first color difference while a value of the first color difference is settled within a distribution range for a value of the second color difference, and generates a boundary value of the distribution range as a third color difference included in the first color pixels in the case where the value of the first color difference is not settled within the distribution range; and an image generation part 1050 for generating an output image on the basis of the second color component included in the second color pixels and the third color difference included in the first color pixels.</p> |
