Color-correcting data from a segmented imaging sensor having plural sensor segments. The data is stored in plural segment memories each of which corresponds to one of the sensor segments, and each segment memory stores overlap data and non-overlap data from the corresponding sensor segment. The overlap data in each segment memory includes boundary data from a boundary region of the sensor segment for which color correction is performed based at least in part on data from a segment memory for an adjacent sensor segment. The overlap data further includes other data from the segment memory used to color-correct the boundary data. According to the invention, overlap data from at least a first half of the segment memories is loaded into a memory buffer. Alternatively, boundary data from all of the segment memories and non-boundary overlap data from a first half of the segment memories are loaded into the memory buffer, or boundary data from all of the segment memories is loaded into the memory buffer. Boundary and/or overlap data from the memory buffer is combined with data from some or all of the segment memories. Color correction is performed of boundary data based on the combined data, and color correction is performed of non-boundary data for each of the segment memories.
