IMAGE PROCESSING APPARATUS

摘要

An image processing apparatus comprises positive (2) and negative (3) original input signal processing sections respectively converting positive and negative signals obtained by photoelectric scanning of positive and negative originals into positive density signals, and a color processing section (4) for color-processing the positive density signals. The apparatus also has a positive imnage output section (5) for converting the output signal of the color processing section (4) into a control signal operating a light source (7) to reproduce a positive image, and a negative image output section (6) for converting the output signal of the color processing section (4) into a negative density signal and then into a control signal operating light source (7) to form an intermediate negative from which a positive image of desired density can subsequently be obtained on a photosensitive material.
