Abstract
A noise reduction system for performing noise reduction processing for an image signal taken in from an image pickup system, includes a local area extracting unit which sequentially extracts, from the image signal, a local area including a target pixel for which the noise reduction processing is performed; a first noise reducing unit which performs random noise reduction processing for the local area; a second noise reducing unit which performs impulsive noise reduction processing for the local area; and a combining unit which combines an image signal which has been subjected to the noise reduction processing by the first noise reducing unit and an image signal which has been subjected to the noise reduction processing by the second noise reducing unit.
