Abstract
A display device () includes: an integrated control unit () that allows selection from among at least a high-luminance mode and a luminance-unevenness-suppression-preferred mode in accordance with an input instruction; and an unevenness correction unit () that performs color unevenness correction for each pixel in both the high-luminance mode and the luminance-unevenness-suppression-preferred mode. In the luminance-unevenness-suppression-preferred mode, the unevenness correction unit () performs a pixel value limitation process for uniformly shifting, for each pixel, a pixel value in image data to a lower pixel value to thereby decrease the pixel value to a pixel value lower than that in the high-luminance mode, and thereafter, performs the color unevenness correction. Accordingly, even if the use of the display device varies, image processing that is appropriate for various uses is implemented.
