Abstract

In an electronic camera that can be utilized with a color filter wheel accessory for obtaining a color image composed of a sequence of red, green, and blue records, slight movement of the camera body can produce misregistration in the color records. Such misregistration can be determined by dividing the color image into a plurality of subsections, and selecting the particular subsection that meets a predetermined criterion for color neutrality, and that contains monochrome edge information suitable for correlation. The color records are brought into registration by processing the edge information of the selected subsection to determine the misregistration between the color records, and by shifting the misregistered records first by integer, and then by fractional pixel shift values.
