A method and apparatus for eliminating defective pixels and noise in which each pixel value of an image is extracted using a color filter. A mean value of the extracted image is calculated A noise variance, a first threshold for determining whether a pixel is defective, and a second threshold for calculating a weight value for a pixel are all estimated from the mean value. There is a determination as to whether each pixel is defective, and a weight value, a weighted signal mean and a weighted signal variance of the each pixel are all calculated, and noise eliminated from the image using the noise variance, the weighted signal mean, and the weighted signal variance.
