Abstract
In one example, at least a portion of a digital raw image frame captured by a digital image sensor is accessed. The accessed at least a portion of the digital raw image frame is de-noised without substantially modifying defective pixel values when present. In response to determining that at least one image frame pixel in the de-noised at least a portion of the digital raw image frame has a defective pixel value: the locations of each of the at least one image frame pixel having a defective pixel value are detected, and each defective pixel value in each detected location is corrected in the de-noised at least a portion of the digital raw image frame or the originally accessed at least a portion of the digital raw image frame.
