IMAGE PROCESSING METHODS AND APPARATUSES TO ENHANCE AN OUT-OF-FOCUS EFFECT

摘要

Disclosed are example methods and apparatuses for image processing for improving an out-of-focus effect. A disclosed example methods includes capturing a first image, a second image, and a third image, which are captured with a different focus for a same subject and background; setting a subject portion and a background portion using the first and second images; combining the subject portion of first image and the background portion of the third image with each other to obtain an narrow depth-of-field (DOF) image; and performing image processing on the obtained narrow DOF image.
