PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To easily eliminate an unneeded object photographed in an image. SOLUTION: When a person 703 is the unneeded object, a user can select the person 703 using a touch-panel function, and thereby the image region of the person 703 is set as an unneeded region 711. An image correction unit extracts an image region other than the unneeded region 711 as a correction patch region (region for correction) from an input image 700, and can eliminate the unneeded object by correcting the unneeded region 711 using the image data of the correction patch region. At this time, the user can select an extraction prohibition region 712. When the selection is performed, a correction patch region 713 is extracted from an image region other than the extraction prohibition region 712. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT |
